The numbers of winter visitors at my feeders this morning increased in numbers making this the best fall by far in the 9 years that I've lived here.
The sightings include:
Red Breasted Nuthatch at least 3 inds.
Purple Finch 5 inds. 2 males and 3 Females
Pine Siskin 8 inds. some are very darkly streaked
This has the makings for a very good finch year with all of the scattered reports so far throughout Ohio
