Detailed information about crossbills

can be obtained by consulting the published monographic study:

Groth, J. G.  1993.  Evolutionary differentiation in morphology,
    vocalizations, and allozymes among nomadic sibling species in
    the North American red crossbill (Loxia curvirostra) complex.
    Univ. California Publ. Zoology, vol. 127.

It contains hundreds of audiospectrograms, measurements of beaks and bones, results of a detailed genetic survey, and extensive natural historical, and behavioral data. It can be found in university libraries, or may be obtained from the publisher (I think it's $17):
