I was in the city today, and happened to have my camera in the car. I didn't have time to get more than these few bird shots.

Lin, the only times I've really had oranges out before were when the orioles came in the fall of 2009. I didn't see any woodpeckers using the ones near the house, but doesn't mean there weren't any. At the wildlife area outside the fence, squirrels were stealing the orange halfs during the day, so that didn't turn out well.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
