pine siskins


pine siskins, originally uploaded by hobbitsmama.

We finally managed to attract pine siskins to our yard! Very exciting. At one point, there were 10 here chowing on nyjer seeds. They are agressive little guys .. having no problem chasing off the other birds. Not impressed if they chase the chickadees and goldfinches but happy to see them chasing away our house sparrows. We have also had more house finches than last year and only one female purple finch so far.
