A flock of about 6 to 12 pine siskins has visited our thistle sock feeder 
daily for about the last three weeks. They dominate the lesser and American 
goldfinches that are the regular feeders. In previous years, we would have perhaps 
one stray pine siskin per season at the feeder. 
Occasionally a hermit thrush also darts among shrubbery near the tree where 
the feeder hangs, among the usual ground-feeding golden crown sparrows and 
dark-eyed juncos.

This is in the south part of Walnut Creek, off Rudgear Road.
