I birded Blandy Experimental Farm yesterday morning and while there were no
crossbills that I could find, I did see a covey of 7 NORTHERN BOBWHITE in
the field along the Native Plant Trail, near the pavillion at the wetlands.
The feeders behind the Quarters were very active, with the highlights being
3 female PURPLE FINCHES, many, many PINE SISKINS, and a BLACK-CAPPED
CHICKADEE.
