You know, I was siskin-less too, until this past Sunday.  Then I realized that the
problem was not the siskins, it was me!  It was possible that they were around,
but I was never home to see the little rascals.  On Sunday I actually spent a
whole day at home, instead of running here and there, and ouila!  there they were,
at least 7, at the thistle feeder.  Which brings to mind that old conundrum about
a tree falling in a forest  - does it make a noise if there is no one to hear it?
