With the help of Craig Benkman, the biologist who discovered them, we
have a new page devoted to the Cassia Crossbill on the Idaho Birds web
site. It lists locations and directions to where you can find them, and
recordings of the call notes needed to identify. This is a work in
progress, and I’m sure we will be adding more to this area of the site
in the future. For now anyone who wants to find them should be able to
with this info.

Thanks, Brian. I hope to put out a feeder soon. My back went out yesterday, though, and I can barely make it outside to do a stationary checklist, much less put up a feeder. Argh. Hate to think of all the Hummers I’m missing pass through.

Don’t dream it, be it.
