Observation details
5 Red Crossbill in total. Sadly, we observed two of the birds get struck by a vehicle. The other three remained perched near the side of the road. I took recordings of their calls. A just-for-fun working hypothesis is that there were two Types involved. Two of the birds had a distinct call from the lone bird; observers noticed differences in body and head/bill size between the lone bird and the two birds next to it. Both sound clips uploaded below. I have sent this checklist to Matt Young. Edit: Matt Young confirmed this recording to Type-level.
