Greetings, all. I was searching the flock of finches at my feeders yesterday 
morning looking for the two or three Purple Finches that ocassionally show 
up. I didn't see them, but I did spot my first Pine Siskin of 
the season. He seemed to be the only one, hanging out with the Goldfinches. 
The rascal landed on top of a feeder perch that a Goldfinch was already 
hanging from (upside down thistle feeder, ports below the perches, great for 
Goldfinches, Purple Finches and Pine Siskins, discourages House Finches). 
Then he reached down and goosed the Goldfinch and took his place when he flew 
off. - Don Holt, Central Community, Carter Co., TN
