Migrations -- An erratic wanderer, usually resident where it finds its way.英文原著 · 《Bird Neighbors》
The goings and comings of these birds are certainly most erratic and infrequent; nevertheless, when hunger drives them from the far north to feast upon the juniper and other winter berries of our Northern States, they come in enormous flocks, making up in quantity what they lack in regularity of visits and evenness of distribution.英文原著 · 《Bird Neighbors》

Winters south to the Gulf of Mexico. Migrations -- Erratic winter visitor from October to April. Uncommon in summer.英文原著 · 《Bird Neighbors》
A small grayish-brown brindle bird, relieved with touches of yellow on its back, wings, and tail, may be seen some winter morning roving on the lawn from one evergreen tree to another, clinging to the pine cones and peering attentively between the scales before extracting the kernels. It utters a call-note so like the English sparrow's that you are surprised when you look up into the tree to find it comes from a stranger. The pine siskin is an erratic visitor, and there is always the charm of the unexpected about its coming near our houses that heightens our enjoyment of its brief stay.英文原著 · 《Bird Neighbors》
