And then, The Redpole!


And then, The Redpole!

My first redpole at this house! Sure sign of spring, these are migratory, though their journey is short compared to most of our migraters.

You are just getting them, I'm just losing them. They are a winter bird here, as are the juncos!

I love when they come through. Just from further south, as Grammazoo says. Most of our migrator are north to south, I'm not sure if anything crosses over from russia. Siberia has similar migratory birds in their boreal forest. Breeding grounds for pacific birds mostly.
