It was a great weekend to count birds in Northern Wisconsin. Nothing out of the ordinary showed up at my feeders but I finally managed to stumble across a flock of white-winged crossbills - my first! This is the list I submitted to Cornell along with a couple of photos of those counted.

Chickadee - 14
White-winged Crossbill - 12
Blue Jay - 5
Goldfinch - 5
White-breasted Nuthatch - 2
Red-breasted Nuthatch - 2
Downy Woodpecker - 2
Hairy Woodpecker - 2
House Finch - 2
Bald Eagle - 2
Common Redpoll - 1
