we saw these for the first time this early spring at our feeder. There were 4 tiny females that looked pitiful like they were starving that we mistook for gold finch, and after reading here that they migate here from florida to start spring and that they depend on watching the gold finch to find food, we know now they really were starving. They were in bad shape and also afraid of people when they first came here about two weeks ago, now they are looking healthier as they have been eating everyday and like if to thank us, they now let us get close in the yard to watch them eating.

I love to see this bird eating from the feeders each winter. Usually my yard is a way-station on their trek back north to the nesting grounds, so seeing them really is the First sign of spring. They tend to travel in groups with other birds, and depend on local chickadees to show them where the feeders are.

This year we've had 10 to 15 of these at our feeders daily. I don't ever remember this happening before. Usually we have lots of finches, but not the Pine Siskins. I wonder what's up?
