We have mostly downey woodpeckers but occassional see a red-bellied woodpecker, which if very shy. <br /><br />Thanks for the comment on my blog! I know it's amazing to see what people are planting in different gardening zones. The garden centers just started getting the pansies about 2 weeks ago here in Massachusetts and they will stay in the potting containers until probably end of May. <br /><br />--JackieEllie Mae's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13889959606127833480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795387901232045644.post-90221743800071373682009-04-28T10:09:00.000-05:002009-04-28T10:09:00.000-05:00I love to see woodpeckers.

Perhaps he will settle close by and visit from time to time. Then again, maybe he was just passing by on his way to someplace far from me. It was a joy seeing him.<br />MarnieRoses and Lilacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121676379580186489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795387901232045644.post-77972289929360971202009-04-27T23:09:00.000-05:002009-04-27T23:09:00.000-05:00Great looking bird!

We had two last year so they probably have returned. I was just reading that orioles like cut oranges and grape jelly. We feed the birds our left over biscuits every morning. I told Alvin I guess we should put jelly on one of the biscuits in the morning.
