Phil and Tweeters,
I've often heard Red Crossbills flying over this year when we were at our condo in north Kirkland (just north of Kingsgate area bordering Woodinville). Always a surprise!

May all your birds be identified,

Subject: [Tweeters] Yard bird - Red Crossbills

Sitting on the front porch this afternoon I was amazed to see a family of Red Crossbills come down to our recirculating stream to drink. Less than 5 feet away was an adult male, female and two youngsters. We live in Northeastern Kirkland near Bothell and Woodinville at an elevation of around 1000 feet. Not where I would expect to see crossbills.
