This morning at 9:30, a flock of 25+ pinesiskins were on the sunflower-hearts feeder, thistle feeders as well as on the ground picking through spilled mixed seed.  Also had 3 purple finch (2 male, 1 female).  On 10/8/12 I saw 1 red-breasted nuthatch that has not returned.  I am no longer envious of people who have seen 60+. siskins at one time.
