Ingleside - This is the subspecies Greater Common Redpoll. The bird is a little larger, with heavier streaking on the underparts, browner above, more black in front of the eye and heavier bill. The bird breeds on Baffin Island and Greenland and appears in small numbers during major redpoll eruptions like the one we are enjoying this winter.

Cornwall - Redpolls have been along roadsides feeding in weeds since December but it was only recently that they headed to feeders when heavy snow arrived. Update:. Christmas bird counts in Eastern Ontario did well with redpolls. Several had record numbers with the highest being over 750. Some feeders in the region are now seeing 30-75 birds coming in regularly.
