Some Winter Birds of Centre County, PA

Most of these birds are common winter residents, or annual winter visitors. Pine Siskins are seen here in the winter in small numbers, but this winter we've been witnessing an irruption of these birds. I've had between 70-200 siskins at my feeders recently. The Harris's Sparrow is a rare winter visitor, that is less commonly seen in the eastern states.
