House Finch


Pine Siskin

Goldfinch

For years I've been accustomed to always having dozens of American Goldfinches at my backyard feeders every winter.  This year for the first time ever, things have changed noticeably. Now I have dozens of House Finches and dozens of Pine Finches flocking to my winter feeders.   The Goldfinches have been pushed to the rear.   The House Finches are number 1 and the Pine Siskins are number 2.   I'm sure there are a few good reasons for this, but I'm always amazed how Mother Nature can alter what seem to be consistent behaviours.
