Yesterday, while walking through mixed woods , I counted four Downy
woodpeckers feeding in a small area.  Although there were lots of standing
dead softwood and hardwood trees, each of these birds was on a live,
seemingly healthy white birch.  Any idea what they might be after? Could
something be hatching this time of year?
