This weeks featured birds are an American Goldfinch and a Red-bellied Woodpecker.
I typically watch birds on Saturday and Sunday. This is my report for 20-21 November 2021.
Bird Watching Notes
Red-bellied Woodpecker
The Red-bellied Woodpecker likes to check out the peanut feeder from the safety of the Indian Magic Crabapple tree.
