Pine Siskins returned to my West Nashville yard a few days ago, and along
with usually equal numbers of House and Goldfinches, and the usual titmice
and chickadees, have been emptying the feeders more than once daily. I've
had as many as 20 Siskins at a time on the deck today and yesterday, with
more in the trees.
Just a few minutes ago, the Finch party was finally joined by a fashionably
late Purple Finch, my first for the year in both the yard and Davidson
County.
