Red crossbill ♂ (49677910382)
Description:
I went for a walk the day after the summit so my legs wouldn't freeze up entirely. A small flock of crossbills landed right in front of me in order to eat some pebbles off the road. I guess they store them in their gizzard to help grind up the seeds they eat.
