Apparently these crossbills have been hanging around Hammo for some time.

I'm going back to some of my earliest wildlife images. These are scans from old prints and slides. This is the best I could do to adjust the color balance on these old images*. The day was cloudy and drizzly. The Fall of 1984 was a crossbill invasion year in Texas. There were many scattered reports across the state. I photographed these crossbills at a feeder and in a sycamore tree at the home of a neighbor of Egan & Sue Wiedenfeld outside of Boerne, Kendall Co., TX. My field notes indicate we saw 3 males and 1 female on this date. One male and one female are on the seed feeder in the 2nd photo. I left that location and drove to Big Spring, TX, by late afternoon where I saw additional crossbills (see separate observation). [* Update: I swapped out my c--- first photo of the crossbills at the feeder for one corrected by Greg. Many thanks.]

I'm going back to some of my earliest wildlife images. These are scans from old prints and slides. This day had heavy overcast and light drizzle. This is the best I can do to adjust the color balance on these old images. The late Fall of 1984 showed a widespread invasion of crossbills in Texas. I had just seen and photographed a few in Boerne, TX, on this same morning and had driven to Big Spring to chase a Greater Pewee reported there earlier by Mark Lockwood. Upon arriving at the city park south of town, I found as many as 20 foraging on arbor vitae cones in the park. These are the only usable images I obtained of those birds. (My image of the Greater Pewee is even worse.)
