Hello Wisbirders, Melissa contacted us with an interesting question that I hope some of you will have some insight on. Please contact Melissa directly (and/or all of us) at melissa.lindstrum@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:melissa.lindstrum@xxxxxxxxx> *** My sister found a dead woodpecker in her yard in Milwaukee this week. Its wings were spread out, almost like it had been sunbathing. Never seen a dead bird in this position before. Any particular reason for it? Thanks for any input! *** Thanks, as always, Karen -- Karen Etter Hale Chair, Wisconsin Bird Conservation Initiative Citizen Science Coordinator, Madison Audubon Society NEW: 1400 E.
