Pine siskin (male)

Well this is a first for me, not a first sighting but the first time I have managed to capture a pine siskin image. Actually, it is only the second winter I have ever seen these on the farm. I have had a single, little male coming to the feeder with the goldfinches for about a month now. And yesterday he turned up with a mate and a second pair of siskins accompanying him. Hope they hang around for a while they are neat little birds. (Please correct me if I am wrong on the ID.)
