Cocke county
Elevation: 1750 ft.
I saw a pine siskin pulling material from a stash of dryer lint and
hair by our feeders yesterday. According to Nicholson's "Atlas of
Breeding Birds in TN", the pine siskin is a "rare and erratic" breeder
in the Southern Appalachians. There's other evidence of their
breeding in Cocke county: a juvenile was collected in July, 1937 at
about the same elevation.
