Living in the north I saw some singing their their hearts out, in the next township while working during the census. In St Catharines I used hear Cardinals until their range receded south. Not abeauty but certainly outstanding is the Piliated Woodpecker. Evening and Pine grosbeaks were also seen, Finches Gold, Purple and House were sometimes seen and Pine Siskins, Gold Crested and Ruby Crowned Kinglets. In 1986 we moved 400 km or 250 miles door to door. I first saw them in Niagara-on=the-Lake in 1980, the year I identified House Finches. Evening Grosbeaks are gaudy if you but interesting in their migration pattern. Redpolls I saw two out of seven years Many years we saw only six species until migration, for us ,started with robins and and crows around the beginning of March In a good year beauties included grosbeaks.

Hoary Redpolls are the rarer of the two - look for pale birds with less streaking hiding in flocks of Common Redpolls. Hoary Redpolls have feathers on a greater extent of their bodies than other birds, and sometimes if temperatures get too warm they’ll pluck out their own feathers to help regulate their temperature. They’re found year-round in northern Canada, where Common Redpolls sometimes burrow into the snow to stay warm. ![]() Hoary & Common Redpolls Photo © nebirdsplus / Flickr (now removed, Creative Commons when added)Īnother irruptive bird and feeder favorite, Hoary and Common Redpolls are well adapted to life in frigid arctic climates. ![]()
