One of nearly 100 Pine Siskins who visited my yard for a week. Due to wide-spread crop failure in the north, winter finches are predicted to show up in high volumes this year.Pine Siskin

This is going to be a great winter! I got my first Sapsucker, Brown Creeper, and Red Breasted Nuthatch a few days ago here in Central Ohio. There's been reports all around Ohio of Siskins, Red Breasted Nuthatches, a Snow Bunting, and more. I believe a few crossbills might have been heard flying over up near Erie too recently... This is going to be a fun winter.
Total bird geek out.

It'll be a good winter all over. See [link] - I'm really hoping for an Evening Grosbeak!!!

I'm really excited that I have the same camera and lens that captured this, too!
BTW, did you update your camera firmware, yet?

I did not. Can't say that I am proactive when it comes to that!
