Feeding Wild Birds

I love the woodpeckers :) I have several pairs of Downy woodpeckers that frequent my feeders and at least one red-bellied. Maybe a few hairy ones too but I've yet to be certain with them. I'd absolutely love to see a pileated woodpecker out there one day. I've only ever seen one... and it was on a telephone pole, while I was at work, driving by. I only caught a quick glimpse.

Thought that I heard one frog 'croak' while I was at the club. Went to check one of the vernal ponds and found two wood frog egg masses. They started breeding at the same time last year.
Tadpoles from these egg masses are starting to hatch as of today.

Took a trip to Annapolis, Md. yesterday. In the area of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge we saw three active Osprey nests. At one nest we witnessed one member of the pair returning with sticks to add to the nest.
