The news continue to be about Pine Siskins, their ongoing presence in Prospect Sweetgums ( wherever they are) a reliable sighting. Rob Jett reports 20 up at Butterfly Meadow. Looks like a little irruption here and that bodes well for an interesting winter. Lets hope they stick around to keep it exciting in Prospect and anywhere nearby . Oh, forgot about that late AMERICAN REDSTART that was seen again today (Wellhouse)
