First Bird of the Year - Pine Siskin

Happy New Year everyone!

I got up at seven thirty when my uncle called me to his window to take a look at the backyard thistle feeders. I looked out and saw Pine Siskins mixed with American Goldfinches. Since I saw the Pine Siskin first, that is my bird for the year of 2009.

…and then I went back to bed.
