Some birds seem to be few and fare between.

Other birds are seen all the time.

Then there are birds that for some reason or another it seems to be that I have increasingly frequent sightings.

That is the case for Pine Siskins.

It was a long time before I saw my first Pine Siskin.

Then it just seemed over the years I have been seeing them with increasing frequency.

There are all sorts of possible reasons for this. But I am happy to be seeing them regularly.

They are nifty little birds to see around.
