Hi Laura,
I'm so glad you had a good finch morning. About 5 miles to the southeast, we, too, had an abundance of finches. I tried to count the goldfinch by fives and got to ~135. We had 2 Pine Siskin that I noted. One and probably two Fox Sparrow sang as I fed the birds. Plus, one Purple Finch and two Song Sparrow and about a dozen juncos and 4-5 Tree Sparrow at the feeders. We have a pair of Red-bellied W. coming in to our suet and recently a Pileated has been drummiong and coming to the suet. We hope he succeeds in attracting a mate. It doesn't feel like spring, bu it sounds like spring.
