Pine Siskins!


The first representatives of a northern irruption species found their way to my feeders yesterday! High count today (10/31) was 5 Pine Siskins! Hope these are only the first of many more northern finches this winter!

Nice to see these little guys are back after a couple of years' absence. The presence of both RB Nuts and siskins must mean it's an off year for northern pine nut production.

Evidence of a strong winter finch season continues to mount across the blogosphere! Good news!
