Observation details
I'm doing this checklist to document that Redpolls have been coming to my Thistle/Nijer feeders since early January. They began coming just a few days after the Goldfinches departed. Hadn't seen any Goldfinches since January until today, prompting this checklist. Redpolls still come every day just at sunrise, and at various times during the day. I was away for 16 days (27-March to 12-April) with no feeders up, and the first sunrise back home, I was surprised to see them at sunrise at the newly-hung thistle feeders. Usually there are about 30, but sometimes there have been 50. Hopefully pictures are sufficient evidence...
