Index of Subjects --part1_76c7e.605153a0.3966642d_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Very common behaviour in our yard the last couple of days. Several pairs of hairys and downys nesting here and now that the babies are out it is sometimes hard to work out who is chasing and feeding whom.

Later, the male started eating out of a mostly empty feeder while the female hopped around inside our crabapple tree. We noticed that she would visit the male and they would exchange food. It looked like she was feeding him [insects from the tree?] I managed to capture one of these exchanges. _http://www.amimckay.com/graphics/hairywoodpeckers-lunch1.jpg_ (http://www.amimckay.com/graphics/hairywoodpeckers-lunch1.jpg) Could she be his mother? Is this common in mated pairs? Many questions. Ian McKay Scots Bay No virus found in this outgoing message.
