Saw about a dozen (likes to be a few more) hawfinch this morning. Mixed flock of male female and what appeared to be juveniles. I was sitting in a high seat while deer culling and the flew into a small Sitka spruce tree about 10 meters from where I was sitting. Confirmed sighting with my binoculars.
