[EBB Sightings] siskin returns

We again had a siskin at our thistle feeder this morning.  Assuming  
it was the same one that we saw on the 9th of July (not sure how  
warranted this assumption is), its wing bars had grown in a bit more,  
and were definitely white.  The siskin fed for about 5 minutes, but  
was finally chased off by some of the american and lesser goldfinches  
that were jostling for position on the thistle bag.

We are located in "richmond view", Contra Costa County, near Wildcat  
Canyon Regional Park.


Good Birding,

Alan
