There's been an irruption of redpolls and siskins in Alaska, and a Common Redpoll has been reported here in the Twin Cities metro area. Looks like it might be a great year for winter finches!

First Pine Siskin of the Fall
A brightly colored Pine Siskin showed up at our feeders today. First one I've seen here this fall!

Hooray! Just what I want to hear - redpolls will be a lifer for me!

ReplyDeleteWas this in the cities or in Hovland?
