Garden News Flash!

Wow! I just discovered I have a whole bunch of pine siskins at the finch feeders. At first I thought they were my goldfinches, just looking very dark, but they all have streaky breasts. Another NEW for my yard list. They do winter here, so I wonder if I will see them all winter? Maybe I had them last year, but am just getting better at identifying what I have! The red-breasted nuthatches are very busy here today too. I thought I saw another elusive junco skulking under the mums, but it disappeared as soon as I grabbed the binoculars.
