Hi all,
   I took a long lunch to try for the White-winged Crossbill. It made a very
brief appearance around 12:20. From Sligo Creek Parkway I saw it for only
two or three seconds as it perched on the water tray on someone's back deck.
When I left at 12:45 it hadn't reappeared but there was a growing crowd of
birders keeping a watchful eye.
