Greetings from Claytor Lake,
                                Today I  counted 50 (fifty), (give or take a 
couple), Purple Finches on the  feeders and surrounding trees!   1 Pine Siskin 
graced me with his  presence for a short while at the thistle seed feeder, 
also at the feeders was a  field and chipping sparrow, and a strange finch, 
which I thought at first was  another crossbill. I took a photo this strange 
billed bird. Take a look!   Four Common Loons and an osprey were seen on the 
lake.
                                                                              
                 Good Birding,
                                                                              
                                     Mark Mullins
