I was able to relocate the flock east of the soccer field at 10:20, look for single conifer tree, they were forging with a large group of siskins. The group flew off to the west and it appeared the redpolls flew in a separate flock from the siskins. I relocated them again across from the softball field entrance again with siskins again jumpy and when they flew out I was able to count 17. They flew west and I was unable to follow them.
