Hey! WOW! What beauties. We drove to Urbana today to find the WW Crossbills. It was COLD and snowy and they weren't in sight at first! We heard a Robin, a Carolina Wren and a Redtail flew up and THEN!!!!! There were 3 and then 30! Right where Doug Snapp said they would be - near his relatives! I was so cold, my camera was shaking and not even the auto-or anti-shake helped! But I did manage to get 1-2 good enough photos! We went for a burger at Wendy's and then returned to take more shots! YOU MUST TRY FOR THESE AMAZING BIRDS - They are in Ohio everywhere, except the West Central Ohio Area! But take a drive - and see them! Awesome! Thanks for the privilege!
