<div dir="ltr">in sammamish, i've had all five western washington woodpeckers at feeders in the same day; an average was three-ish. while the sapsucker was frequently seen at the front of my building, he didn't show up in the back (where my feeders were) nearly as often as the others... not sure why, given the total distance from front to back is less than 25-30 metres...</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Nov 10, 2023 at 4:41 PM Barbara Mandula <<a href="mailto:barbaramandula@comcast.net">barbaramandula@comcast.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg6222227054525701839"><div lang="EN-US" style="overflow-wrap: break-word;"><div class="m_6222227054525701839WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13pt">For the first time in the 17 years I’ve been watching the bird feeders on my porch near Madrona Woods, I’ve seen a piliated woodpecker and a hairy woodpecker. Each visited the suet feeder on the same day at the beginning of November. The hairy appeared a few days later at a seed feeder, and the piliated returned today to the suet. Until this month, I’d seen only an occasional downy keeping the ubiquitous flickers company. Is there a woodpecker irruption? <u></u><u></u></span></p></div></div>_______________________________________________<br>
