Birders,
I have been trying to get an accurate count of all the Goldfinches in my back 
yard this  morning.  It is at present 12 degrees and the ground is covered with 
all kinds of finches!  I can count 65 Goldfinches + or - 5.  There are no 
Pinesiskins.  This was curious to me so I looked across the creek to their 
favorite "hang out" tree  and there they were-about 25 sitting in the sun.  I 
expect they  will be here presently while I try to maintain the food supply.
Curiously, the Goldfinches are already changing into spring feathers.  A few 
are really yellow!
