I'm so glad that everyone is getting to see the Crossbill.  Here is a
small comment from the natives - There are Warm Springs and Hot Springs,
but there is just one Silver Spring.
Thanks,
Helen

I was finally successfully today in getting photos of the much
observered White-winged Crossbill in Silver Springs today.  I arrived
around 1:30 pm and the bird had not been seen.  Just after getting my
rig set-up, it appeared in the viewfinder and I was able to quickly get
the rest on the observers on the bird.  It was quite obliging.

Six pictures in all (warning, the last is an action shot) starting at:
