Hi, It was fun to have both Purple Finch and Pine Siskin in my yard on Gildersleeve Mountain, in Kirtland this morning. While the Purple Finch is found regularly just a few mile or so NE at Holden, and also a similar distance to the SW at Buster's house in Gates Mills, it has been years since I have seen them here. Pine Siskin nested here in 2007 so they are far less unusual here.
