Once in awhile NWPA will get an irruption of Pine Siskins, but even then they're rare in my neck of the woods. I was glad to be able to capture a few shots of this one that was hanging out with a small flock of goldfinches.

Very pretty shots Michele,

They're kinda rare visitors here also, and I'd love to have any images of them as nice as these.

good shooting,

I have about a hundred of them in the yard most of the year. Only a few left now as the weather is getting colder. You captured some beautiful images here. Well done!
