Observation details
Heard in flight then saw a flock (large finch sized) settle on a eucalyptus tree on the hill. Seemed an odd destination but it was surrounded by pines so maybe my angle was deceptive. Was able to get an audio snippet. Sounds/looks like a Type 3 to me. Type 3 confirmed by Tim Spahr (5/4/24) and Matt Young (5/12/24) ref: https://ebird.org/news/crossbills-of-north-america-species-and-red-crossbill-call-types/
