A Pine Siskin (Spinus pinus). A migratory bird, though quite sporadic in its winter range. I never know if I’ll get to see any of them during the winter. Seems I probably will be in luck this winter.
At the feeders, they are after small, high-oil seeds such as thistle seed, hulled sunflower seeds, and suet. And, goodness, are they ever gregarious!
