I think I'll go home and check my feeders, There was nothing exciting where this
morning, not even my one female purple finch.

Since my house is only a couple of miles from the Coskren's, I checked out the
feeder activity in my back yard to see if I had any Siskins. I have not seen any
Siskins yet, but, I did have a M&F Purple Finch and a Yellow- Bellied Sapsucker.
In the last week, I have had a great migration in my yard. I had a Brown
Creeper, Red-Breasted Nut Hatch, and Hairy Woodpecker. I had a Golden-Crowned
Kinglet about 2 weeks ago, and my White-Throated Sparrows returned on Oct. 18.
OMG, I am still sitting by the window, and two Pine Siskins flew to my feeder.
Thanks Jane and Dennis, if I hadn't read your post, I would still be sitting at
the kitchen table, missing all of this.
What a great morning.
