This study documents the red crossbill (Loxia curvirostra) from the Cerro El Potosí region, Nuevo León, Mexico. Adults were observed at different sites and elevations in December 2006 and again in July and August 2007. A juvenile male was observed in August 2007. These multiple seasonal observations, as well as presence of a juvenile, indicate an established population in the area of Cerro El Potosí. This report adds the red crossbill to the list of permanent avian residents for Nuevo León.
