That's a few of the birds I saw today whilst I was on the roof-top clearing gutters & spreading some tar on the boot of the plumbing vent. Later I sat on one of the chairs & watched as the pine siskins gathered near the drinking-place. They land on the branches near-by, making their way to the fresh water. One flew very near to where I was seated. It seemed surprised when it realised there was a human actually seated there. We locked eyes for a few moments & then the bird made it's way back towards the bird-bath & went on it's merry way. .. I think if one sat there long & still enough, eventually the birds would probably land upon them. . . .Let me know if that happens to you while you are here...
