We did get to watch a Pileated Woodpecker for a while the other day... just never in the backyard.

Very cool.

We have a pair of them that visit regularly. They seem to favor the C&S Woodpecker Treat suet (blue label) from Walmart.

As screwy as weather patterns were this fall, I wouldn't rule it out. We've seen things this season that "shouldn't be here" as well.

Hard to get a size from the pic, but WETA could fit the bill, in the extreme. That said, the lack of white on the wing says it's more likely a transitional Scarlet Tanager.

I perused many an interwebs foto and indeed it's a horse. Thanks H

Beautiful day to be sitting outside in a t shirt enjoying the quiet. Odd to be doing so in February.

Not MD but Locust Grove Va, the ring camera has been going off a lot at my nephews house lately and we can see mice running up the exterior walls around the camera. A couple days ago we started capturing images of a hawk getting the mice, I think its pretty cool, wish the images were better.
