It's gray, dreary.  I'm tired of running errands on my day off.  I was standing at the kitchen sink staring absentmindedly into the drizzle at the bird feeders.  I thought to myself "Those are the streakiest Goldfinches I've ever seen."  As I snapped out of my stupor I had to contain the shouts of "Woohoo" lest I scare away the only Pine Siskins I've seen in the yard in the last 10 years!!!  Throng of 20 or so Siskins with a few Goldfinches for good measure were ignoring the thistle and were cleaning out the sunflowers seeds.
