This weekend is the Great Backyard Bird Count. These Red Crossbill photos were taken by @jc_birdsvt earlier this week in Chittenden County, hopefully the birds stick around for the weekend. The first picture is a female and the second the male. The birds use their crossed bill to pry open conifer cones to the the seeds. #redcrossbill #vtbird #gbbc #communityscience #superflight #winterbirds (at Vermont) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLHHYfDhGcM/?igshid=1amx6tlo5vedp
