Hi Everyone
As i was walking up the new lan today towards Western Light i heard this
constant hammering and decided to investigate. I walked towards the Western
Light and on a telephone pole, the same one we used to put up Nesting
Bluebird boxes was a PILEATED WOODPACKER.I didn't have my camera on me so i
made a loop back to my car, rushed home and was hoping it would still be
there when i got back and it was! Got some of these terrific photos of the
Pileated woodpecker. I posted some pictures on my blog.When i looped home to
get my camera i went past the field where 4 horses were penned and inside
was a KILLDEER displaying the broken wing trick to lure me away.
Other sightings today: Common Loon, eider Ducks, Black Ducks, American
Goldfinch, Dark-eyed Junco, Robins, Common Grackle, Lots of Crows, Ravens
carrying nesting material, Pheasants, Black-capped Chickadees, and Song
Sparrows. Coltsfoot was blooming in abundance at peajack, and in the ditches
lots of frog eggs.
