Media notes
Various individuals (immature males, female and adult male) feeding on Scots Pine cones (see comments). Unfortunately, although heard to call, no recordings were made to confirm their identity 100%. Identification based on following: 1. Jizz of a generally bigger and bulkier bird than Common/Red Crossbill 2. Bills size looks intermediate between Common/Red and Parrot Crossbills. Certainly not large enough for Parrot. 3. Often showed bulging cheeks, which is sometimes deemed typical of Scottish. 4. Feeding on Scots Pine cones and not on other conifers nearby. Any further comments would we welcomed given this is a first video entry for the IBC. Elevation: 257 m. Date added to IBC: June 8, 2017.
