I would absolutely love to know where the White-winged Crossbill goes between visits to my house in Silver Spring.  He was present Sunday from 5pm-5:20pm and again this morning, Apr 14, at 7:15am.  He was first seen on Dec. 2, 2007 and has been an irregular visitor since then. 

Also on Sunday, I had 4 Purple Finch (2M:2F) at the feeders and 1 Pine Warbler.

"There are some who can live without wild things, and some who cannot...like winds and sunsets, wild things were taken for granted until progress began to do away with them. Now we face the question whether a still higher 'standard of living' is worth its cost in things natural, wild, and free. For us of the minority, the opportunity to see geese is more important than television, and the chance to find a pasque-flower is a right as inalienable as free speech."
