Hi all, On the topic of early Pine Siskins I thought I'd forward two reports of that species in New York, NY (Manhattan). Yesterday, Sunday 9/28, Nadir Sourgi heard 2 Pine Siskins calling in the North Woods of Central Park (ebird checklist). In the early morning today, Monday 9/29, Junko Suzuki saw a small group (5) of Pine Siskins at Strawberry Field, which is also in Central Park (ebirdsnyc).
