Thanks for the suggetion, Mary. There is a tiny "General Mercantile" about a mile down the road and they know everyone. I thought I'd start there.

I didn't have the energy to take down my birdfeeders and re-fill them today but I did go out and throw a few handfuls of seed on the ground. They are scurrying around in it like it's candy! I bought another suet cage a few days ago and think I might make up another batch of suet today and hang it. When the downy woodpecker gets on the one that's already up, all the other birds flee.

I know this isn't the wildlife forum but I've had fun today watching one specific wren. She goes over to the pile of seed on the ground, selects her seed, and then brings it over to a flat piece of concrete block so she can crack it and eat it... over and over... almost like she has "table manners" above eating in the dirt, LOL.
