In addition to the lone male Common Redpoll we located on 11/13, today
(11/19) in Richland we located 3 flocks.

There were approximately 20 birds feeding in a birch at Port of Benton Blvd
& 9th St. There was a flock of 4 along McArthur St between Duportail &
Alexander Sts. The last flock of approximately 10 birds was along
Enterprise off Snyder.

All of these locations are in north Richland. The neighborhood there is
well established with larger trees, many of which are appealing to birds
(birch, hawthorne, mountain ash, etc.)

We suspect there could be flocks located in Kennewick this weekend as there
are similar neighborhoods with many birches. We'll keep reporting.
