As promised ...
Red Crossbill images from last week at Salisbury Beach State Park campground.
There are 7-9 "types" of Red Crossbill, which some consider to be separate species. Type 1-4 occur continent wide. Type 8 is found (rare) in Newfoundland. The remaining types are western. (Sibley) If anyone has any thoughts as to which type these photos represent, please offer your comment.
