Subject: [Ohio-birds] Yellow-bellied sapsucker
On Jan. 7 i was excited to see a yellow-bellied sapsucker in my yard on a
large maple. It then came to my suet feeder. This was a first for me!

We moved to our new old house in august last year. I have been also been
excited to see routine visitors like RT hummers last year. This winter in
addition to the sapsucker and regulars like cardinals, bluejays, and
chickadees, i have also had downy, and red-bellied woodpeckers, a flicker,
eastern bluebird, Carolina wren, juncos, house sparrows, titmice, and of
course starlings. One especially excitingly evening we had a flight of
about 30-40 sandhill cranes flying over at about 100 feet! Their calls were
so loud!
I like our new house. :-)
