Awesome pictures!!

My 3yr old son and I love to watch the birds at the feeders here. We have a lovely pair of cardinals that show up around suppertime. I really enjoy teaching him the names of the birds. He gets a kick out of some of the funny things they do.

Enjoy Rosey and Red best wishes to them and hopefully a new brood! ;)

Isn't it lovely to live in SE PA? I'm in Lancaster County and used to frequent Chester County when my husband was in Parks and Recreation there.
You might check at one of the local county parks for information. They usually have someone who know their stuff. Hibernia or Nottingham
Happy birding.

Hi Bob,
Guess we'll be calling you Grandpa, soon :)
Here is a bit I found:
http://birdsbybent.com/ch11-20/redbelly.html - just read the whole page; the courtship tab is non-functional.
I'm off to read more on this site. It seems interesting.

Here is a link that might be useful: Red-bellied Woodpecker

Thanks.

There are going to be a lot of kids here.

I don't know if this is Millie or Phillie but I did see one or both of them taking leaves down into their burrow a few weeks ago. This one took some more leaves down a few mintues ago.

Bob,
I don't have those birds here. lol My neighbor has one, though.
Years ago, my son got between a mother and the burrow...thankfully I was faster than her. She didn't like it that much.

The redbellys that come to my yard come for the raw peanuts in the shell. They fly down to the ground for them.

Gorgeous! Woodpeckers at my feeders seem to love suet blocks, year round.

That's a nice big groundhog!
