Well done, Eileen! Love that caption, as well as the photo.
Syd, you piqued my interest with your question about the origin of "downy" for the woodpecker. Turns out you were absolutely right, spot on! They...
Those are great photos, and I envy you your scads of ducks! Our pond so far has had four ducks show up :( . Herons are difficult to...
