The male RT hummingbird is still present, at the feeder around 9 then in the dogwood tree briefly before the siskins and Purple Finches, etc showed up and scared him away. Siskin numbers seemed to have peaked earlier in the week, burt still hosting the hungry horde. The same 3-4 Purple Finches seem to have settled into a pattern as well (though it could be different birds, but always 1 male and 2-3 female types).

Also that morning had a nice mixed flock of both kinglets pass through. White-throated Sparrows are showing up more now, but haven't seen any DE Juncos since the Big Sit.
