Birds are singing their backsides off. More than three likkle birds pon dis window too. I live on the outskirts of town, in the midst of LOTS of trees, birds everywhere all the while. big lot, gully behind the backyard. I do my archery in the back yard - both English longbow and recurve (all natural of course, medieval not modern, no pulleys, buttons, sites, etc).

Starting a couple years ago a regular visitor to my backyard was a pair of extinct woodpeckers. I captured it repeatedly on film and the guys from wildlife came from NC and determined the bird not extinct after all. Came to my gates every day for two weeks. Here it is on my woodpile near my fire pit.

Big fat turkey looking woodpecker thingy.
