Speaking of compulsive behavior, during my 25 years of banding in Aberdeen, South Dakota, I banded 13,239 Pine Siskins. In my blog today I report on two of the more interesting recoveries among those birds. I also included a photo of one of this year's crop, which finally visited our feeders here in Northfield this week. You can also download a copy of a paper reporting on a siskin/crossbill hybrid.
