Hi Tweeters,
Many thanks to everyone who helped me locate the phoebe, the bridge is fairly unimpressive, but the bird is not! Was there yesterday at 2:30 took all of a minute or two to find (once I was in the right place) , then back under the bridge.
M, 29th small low bridge near the Emerald Downs.

Still have 10+ red crossbills at my feeder daily in Woodmont Park area of Des Moines. (now 3 weeks) How common is this?

Happy birding!
Jeanne-Marie
