I was picking up my children from the Upper Valley Waldorf School in  Quechee 
this afternoon around 3PM, and heard this beautiful  bird rattling away in a 
spruce tree at the edge of the parking  lot.  I had to see what it was, and 
was very pleasantly surprized to find a  female white winged crossbill.  She was 
feeding on some pine cones and was  just bubbling away.  I watched her with 
another parent before the bird  flew off.  It was nice to see this winter bird 
and share the joy of  bird watching with another parent.  I was disappointed 
my children didn't  get to see her, but we'll be on the lookout for another 
time.
