WHITE-WINGED CROSSBILL 



The White- winged Crossbill is much rarer than the Red; its breeding area 

 lies, for the most part, north of the United States, but it breeds sparingly in 

 Maine, the White Mountains, and the Adirondacks. It does not range so 

 far south in winter as the Red Crossbill, the southern limit being marked by 

 North CaroHna, Kansas, and Oregon, and it is much less often seen and in 

 smaller numbers. It has a very variable nesting season, since young were 

 found in the nest at Wolfville, Nova Scotia, January 31, and eggs May 7. In 

 the valley of the Kowak River, Alaska, the earliest eggs were found May 28, 

 189Q.
