Male Red Crossbill (R) and Female Red Crossbill (L).
Red Crossbills breed in boreal coniferous forests across North America. The winter and year round range of the Red Crossbill extends down western North America to west Texas. In terms of Alberta, this species is an erratic wanderer with fluctuations occurring from year to year. They are subject to major population irruptions when the cone crop fails. They will nest at almost any time of year even in winter although spring and summer nesting are the most common. Several pairs may nest semi-colonially. (Atlas of Breeding Birds of Alberta).
In many locations around Edmonton at this time there is an abundant crop of coniferous cones. Several mixed flocks of Red Crossbills and White-winged Crossbills have been reported in our area recently.

A fantastic day spent in Paul Fowlie's Red Squirrel Hides in the Yorkshire dales. These cheeky little characters certainly seemed to be enjoying themselves also.

The brilliance of fall colors in Minnesota comes gradually and leaves suddenly. Each winter day becomes an exhausting search for color and sometimes you find it unexpectedly. The red tags on this Angus cow provide a bit of cheer as winter starts to shoulder its way into our lives.

This Red-bellied woodpecker got its prize from the gravel trail and moved to this tree to hide it. I can't tell what the prize is but I'm sure it was worth the trouble. This was the day preceding a temperature drop and the avian activity was at a high level. The skies were overcast making soft diffused light.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone

glow of yellow colour in the centre of red colour attracts me.
thanks for every one for views, faves, and comments.
I've seen these about before but mistook them as a weird looking nuthatch. Once I zoomed in, I realized that it was something quite different, Small in size with striped markings on the face, their eyes glow bright red in the sun light. Much like the warblers, they feed off of small bugs in this tree.
