re: The Birds

Never have had the Pileated Woodpecker but the Hairy, Downy and Red Bellied.  They are constants on the back porch.  We have a pair of Cooper's Hawks that come each spring and nest somewhere close.  We love watching them.  The next major thing will be the return of Monarch Butterflies but need the Milkweed and flowers to grow.  We normally capture and raise the caterpillars and have a high success rate.
