Hi Folks, The male European Goldfinch that I first reported on October 26th, 2003 in Sault Ste. Marie, has not left the area and has been coming to our finch feeder each day for the past week (39 Pleasant Drive, SSM). It was last seen on November 2, 2003. It does not have any bands or clips.
We have had other records of EUGO in the Sault in the past but I know very little about the occurence of these birds in Ontario/Michigan. Any thoughts about where it may have come from? Vagrant/Escape Ken McIlwrick location info: Sault Ste. Marie is located along the Trans Canada Highway at the south east corner of Lake Superior.
