A Flock of Pine Siskins - A Finch Family

Once the cold weather returns here, so do the Pine Siskins from their summer home in Alaska and Canada.

For a couple of weeks, I have seen them flying in a flock of a dozen or two.  They like to eat seeds at my feeders.

Three brothers:  "He eats there, you eat here, and then how about me?"

Pine Siskin has a pointed beak and a prominent streaking. 

And if you see the yellow at base of tail, you will be sure he/she is one of them.
