Hi all,

I know itıs not entirely unheard of to see Pine Siskins in our area this
late, and Iıve read that they occasionally nest around here, but still...

Every winter we assiduously maintain finch feeders in the back and front
yards, hoping to attract Pine Siskins or Redpolls. Over the years, we have
never seen even one around our house. This morning we had three Pine Siskins
at the feeder in the front of our house in Cleveland Heights, one adult
male, with really brilliant yellow marks, and two females or immatures. We
had really good looks at them before a passing car scared them off.

This has been a tough ³spring² around here‹cold and wet‹but this is really
odd.

Best wishes,

Steve Cagan
Cleveland Heights
