birdfeedingI'm still seeing continuing Red Bellied and Downy Woodpeckers on my suet feeders.
Over the weekend, I attempted to expand my garden. Much to my surprise, I turned up several intact turtle eggs in the soil. So I immediately reburied them and attempted to fence off the area to protect them. Every year the raccoons seem to get to the eggs so I hope I can save them. We shall see!
I also saw a female deer in the woods, the first I've seen in a while. We have several chipmunks around as well as a stray or dumped house cat who seems to come out every morning.
