Dear All,            Sept 6, 2007
    In North Alton this morning a Woodpecker started feeding just 
overhead, making lots of noise, in a fair-sized (~2.5 dm diam) live 
Poplar and the easiest way to circle the tree while looking up was to 
place one hand behind the trunk and swing around.

    It turned out to be just a Hairy but I was surprised to feel the 
trunk vibrate after each hammer. The Hairy was feeding near the top of a 
dead upright snag that branched from the trunk about 2/3 of the way up.

Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
