Yesterday, 1/28, about 3:30 p.m. we had one Common Redpoll on the lake side
of the Lorain impoundment lot. It was with a group of tree sparrows and two
goldfinches. The group was feeding on a type of smartweed on the dike. The
group flew back and forth between the dike and the phragmites.
The interesting thing about the redpoll was that it had a very white rump
which would indicate a Hoary Redpoll. We did not have a chance to see any
other hoary field marks. And, if he two species are lumped, it might be a
moot point anyway. Maybe someone else can relocate the bird and photograph
it.
