Thanks everyone. I'm terrible at giving directions, so I just circled on this map where the redpolls (about 28 of them) were feeding:

Lucky you ... and right where you'd expect them near those lovely birch cones!  Excellent shot. Still hoping to see one or more!!

Beautiful shot!

I'm still hoping for a few Redpolls to show in the backyard.  There is a dozen or so Siskins mixed in with the thirty odd Goldfinches this winter.  The last time the Siskins were in my yard about 3 winters ago, about 8 Redpolls arrived in February and stayed for about 10 days.

A birth certificate shows we were born.  A death certificate shows we died.  Pictures show we live.
