Siskin Eruption
Had 50+ Siskin land in an Alder Tree some 50 yds distance this morning, gorging on seed cones, tried for an image. Have plans to locate closer to the tree in the next few days as they are appearing regularly. Locate any catkin bearing trees nearby and there may be a chance of seeing them.
