A Good Day for Woodpeckers
Monday, March 23, 2009
Lots of activity at the feeders today, especially on the woodpecker front. A male and female downy woodpecker were frequent visitors to the suet feeders... nice to see them again! Then early this afternoon a male red-bellied woodpecker stopped by for a snack, and after while I was making dinner Ann spotted a male yellow-shafted flicker.
A white-breasted nuthatch also put in an appearance... I haven't seen nuthatches for most of the winter (though Ann says they've been by, just when I'm in Albany) so it was good to see one today.
