Well, yesterday I had 6 red crossbills at my feeders and today I came across
a Pileated Woodpecker! It's only the second time in the past 8 years that I
have seen one in Wisconsin. I was pretty surprised to see it at my suet
feeder just now! I can't wait to see what's around tomorrow!!!

Not great pictures, but they'll do!
I haven't seen the crossbills again, but I have around 50 common redpolls a
few siskin, a few Am Tree Sparrows and, oddly, quite a few House Sparrows.
I say oddly because I rarely have them in the yard, probably just a handful
of times in the past 5 years, and it's always been just 1 or 2.
