I might have indicated from time to time that the Two-barred Crossbill has been evading me for years, including one rejected observation from a couple of years ago. Luckily, they’ve decided to do a southward migration of invasion proportions this year, so the classical spot, the Dahurian Larches in the Gothenburg Botanical Garden arboretum, delivered within an hour of arrival. Also nice observations of recently hatched Little Grebes on my way to and from the arboretum.
