Had a nice moment running in my local woodland park. I saw a Hairy Woodpecker on a tree, and as I watched it, a bunch of other birds flew past, including a Pileated Woodpecker. Cool.

LH, we found deer fencing to be far more effective...hung over the outside of the window.http://www.deerxlandscape.com/cgi-bin/webc.cgi/st_main.html?p_catid=8

I've got a big flock of House Finches swarming my feeders, going through the Niger like there's no tomorrow.

Unfortunately, one of then killed himself on the patio door window today. I have to put up some of those little window warning stickers ASAP.

I abandoned my birds this summer so the vast majority of them abandoned me - but we finally have cold weather and the feeders are full again....

Start today, Count Speices that you see at your house or yard. See how many you get in 2012. Only from your house or a 100 foot radius from your property.
Who's in?
