Not Many Falcons, but I Did See Some Birds...

Nice pictures, Jim.  "Static" is really a good word for A/B!

Thanks, Jim - I am sooooo jealous of those Pileated Woodpeckers at your suet feeder! These were once my "bogey birds". (Do birders use that expression in the US re a bird that always eludes them? They do here...). Finally got my eye on one a few years back - but to have them right outside the window? Wow! The Great Spotted Woodpecker, extinct here for ages, has now made its way back, probably from Wales. I look forward to my first contact...

The Belted Kingfisher is another favourite, and a trip home is incomplete if I have not seen one...

Slainte!

I've only seen 2 Woody Woodpeckers in my life....I find them fascinating and huge. My favorite though is the Red-Bellied. I see them and the Downy every day at the feeders where I babysit. Can always tell when their in the area, their calls are "music to my ears". I don't recall ever seeing a Great Spotted. Nice looking bird also. Thanks Bobbie and Jim.

Do they call them Kingfishers because they have hair like Don King? What a doo.  They are cute.
