Birds of a feather . . .
I was fortunate to encounter a small flock of pine siskins this morning. These goldfinch-sized birds almost always move about in flocks, constantly sounding their wheezy calls. They are primarily seed eaters, often coming to feeders in winter, but insects also make up a significant portion of their diet. You can just make out the touches of yellow on the edges of the wing feathers of this bird.
