What The Heck??
I must confess, I have seen many odd things with the backyard bird community. But this is a new behavior for me. Looking at today's BirdCam output I was startled to see a Red Bellied Woodpecker, picking sunflower seeds, from a tube feeder. These characters rarely pick for seeds (I do see Downys do it a bit more often) and I can't ever recall seeing an RBW at a tube feeder. There is plenty of suet to be had, so perhaps our friend here needed a little change of diet. One really never knows what goes on in their minds. So another "myth" busted. Will wonders never cease!
