The Common Crossbill, or Red Crossbill (Loxia curvirostra) is a small passerine bird in the finch family Fringillidae. It breeds in the spruce forests of North America, Europe and Asia. The crossbill is characterised by mandibles that cross at their tips, lending the group its English name. They feed on conifer cone seeds, particularly of spruce, douglas-fir, and pine. The unusual bill shape is an adaptation to assist the extraction of the seeds from the cone.
