Hello everyone!
Hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful day today.
I saw the following birds on and around the home front today. And, I finally
had a Female Pine Siskin allow me a photo. The Male Pine Siskin continues to
carry around a little sign refusing, off feeder, photos until I sign a seed
agreement. Each time I take his photo on a feeder he tucks the sign under his
wing! (;-}).
Anyway, here is what I saw today.
Male Red-Bellied Woodpecker
Female Red-Bellied Woodpecker
Male Downy Woodpecker
Female Downy Woodpecker
