Ron Pittaway's annual Winter Finch Forecast is available, and it contains some information of interest to Ohio birders... http://www.jeaniron.ca/2016/finchforecast16.htm In short, while it may not be a big irruption year, this winter we will want to keep our eyes peeled for crossbills, siskins, and purple finches. In addition, if redpolls stage a southern movement, they will likely show up here as well. Good birding, Andy Sewell Columbus ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
