Subject: [ia-bird] Winter Finches
I’m curious about what others have heard about the presence of winter finches this year. I always find the winter finch report interesting and predictions about what we may see here in the states due to various factors such as cone crops etc. further north.
Obviously it’s just a prediction but if I recall i had read this year might be a “good” finch year for several species.
I know there have been quite a few red breasted nuthatches but seemingly few other reports of other northern birds.
Just curious if other states saw heavier traffic than we did or not.
Thanks for any information
