The feeders this winter have been fairly busy with numbers of birds, but few northern birds.  We have 6-8 Purple Finches everyday, but we have seen only one Pine Siskin(for 15 minutes), this year.  Have these birds at our feeders: Blue Jay, Cardinal, Chickadee, White breasted nuthatch, house sparrow, tree sparrow, (the Fox and White throated sparrow pulled out about a week ago), junco, woodpeckers-Red breasted, Hairy, Downy, and Pileated(not at feeder but seen daily), occasional pheasant, and occasional Sharp-shined hawk.
