Ahhh, Just to Sit on the Deck

Between yesterday and today I've had Downy Woodpeckers, Hairy Woodpeckers, Pileated Woodpeckers, Red-bellied Woodpeckers, European Starlings, Mourning Doves, Red-Winged Blackbirds, Black-capped Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, Dark-eyed Juncos, various sparrows, Common Grackles, White-breasted Nuthatches, Northern Flickers, Northern Cardinals, and an American Robin sitting on my suet feeder (first time I've seen that).

In the wetland I've had Great Blue Heron, Canada Geese, Wood Ducks, Pied-billed Grebes, Mallards, Buffleheads, Cooper's Hawk (hunting), Belted Kingfisher, Great Horned Owl (in the trees of course), Red-shouldered Hawk (also hunting), and a Hooded Merganser taking up residence in my duck house!

I'm sure I've forgotten a few, but other than that, it's been pretty boring around here.  ;)
