Long Sault - Flocks of redpolls have been showing up along country roads in the last few weeks with birds actively feeding on weed seeds. Later in the winter, when snows cover more of their food, they should appear at feeders.

A few birds popped up in the parking lot when I did some pishing. Only second time I've ever seen this Eastern species.

Redpoll winter appearances depend largely on the availability of seeds in their habitat further north. When there is a shortage of food, they move south in what is called an irruptive movement. This usually happens every other year or so! When it happens, redpolls are a common visitor to bird feeders!

We see them often with the Common Redpolls this winter so far :) in large groups at the feeders - beautiful songs!

Common Redpoll; this is the first time I see them here in years; they've been around the feeders in groups of 15 every day. Quite pretty and very chatty

A compilation photo for identification purposes of a Hoary Redpoll. The bird displayed the field marks such as no streaking, white rump, larger size versus Common Redpoll, and overall pale colour.
Seen in the airport field during the Christmas Bird Count.
