Must be Bill and Shirley are the sharing type, in that we now have a red poll or two at our feeder as well, just up the road outside of Interlaken. Phil and Mary Jean saw two the other day, but today was the first day I saw one, a very nice Christmas present. Lotsa goldfinches and more house finches than I've seen in quite a few years, but no siskins.

Ta Da! About 17 siskins on niger feeders. When they left, the resident goldfinches returned, about 18 of them. Hard to count 'em when they outnumber the perches on the feeders. The snow here (1 to2 inches) has made this a very birdy morning. We must have been very good this year, to be so rewarded.
