I meant to post this last night but I was without internet service most of the evening. When I finallly figured out the problem, I forgot to post it. On Thursday evening when I got home, a quick glance at my finch sock told me there was a hungry goldfinch eating Nyjer seed. A closer look told me that it was not a goldfinch at all. It was a pine siskin. That was only the second time I've ever seen a pine siskin on my finch sock. I was surprised to see it here so late in the year.
