Yesterday both Purple Finches and Pine Siskins returned to our feeders 
here in Bowie, after an absence of a few days. Again there were 1 
"purple" and 3 "brown", joined by 5 siskins. While both numbers are not 
unprecedented, they have never before (26 yrs) coincided in the same 
season. Both Friday and Saturday also saw an unusually high number of 
Goldfinches, ~20.
