Dear fellow Tweeters,

I've had a group of Red Crossbills coming to my feeders for the past
three weeks. Almost daily I see an adult male and female and on
occasion I've see two juveniles (at least one begging but not being fed)
and an additional adult male and female. The question is, would it be
premature to consider this a breeding species for my yard or should I
wait for more concrete evidence like an adult feeding a fledgling?

Anyone who would like to see these birds is welcome to visit; I see the
birds several times a day.

Thanks,
