Re: [cobirds] Continuing crossbills

The other thing that I've found surprising about these guys is that they seem to be the least timid visitors to my feeder as well. I've had a bird or two actually stay sitting on the feeder as I pulled it to refill. It's provided some great opportunities to make portraits of these birds that I usually only observe in the tops of trees. See attached.

We had about 15 Sunday morning on our feeders in Allenspark (Boulder Co, 8500 ft). First time to have that many. We'll see if they stay around!

I've had them every day since April 11th. Usually around 20, sometimes 40. I'm in the Big Thompson canyon west of Loveland, East of Drake. Looks like they are eating sunflower chips.

I've had a flock at my feeders for about three weeks.  I generally report  25 on eBird but there could be twice that.  In the fall of 2007 I had up to 150 over a period of a few weeks.

We've had a flock of red crossbills on our feeder (black sunflower seed) everyday for 2.5 months now (draining it daily now). Pine Brook Hills, Boulder, County. I've had them stop by over the years, but never stay for more than a few days, and typically just when it's be cold.
 
I'm curious if anyone else is seeing that same thing?
