Observation details

There were two smaller flocks earlier, but the final flock of crossbills had 20 birds, counted from a photo. The audio recording and all my photos are from this flock. Tim Spahr identified both Cassia Crossbills and Type 5 Red Crossbills in my audio recording, so I'll estimate 15 Red Crossbills.
