Buncombe Co. Finces



Neighbors of ours near Weaverville have been having lots of winter finches
at their feeders since early march. They have photos of all of them.

Red Crossbills (4-6 at a time, twice a day) They say that there weren't any
last year but had some the year before.
Purple Fiches (several)
Pine siskins (dozens sometimes when it rains).
and some House finches

It is intereresing that we don't have the Crossbills or Purple Finches at
our house less than a mile away.  Their backyard habitat is more dense with
more young pines.
