This was where I set up my bird feeders, just one at first, then expanding as everyone expressed delight in seeing the Carolina Chickadees, Dark-eyed Juncos, and Downy Woodpeckers. I picked up a Downy Woodpecker, an every-day visitor. Dead birds are a part of the life of a birder, a feeder of birds, and of bird science.

Another challenge to bird research is that it is woefully underfunded and relies heavily on citizen science. Remember the whole Cornell Ivory-billed Woodpecker search and how you literally had to apply for a volunteer position to pay your own way down to Arkansas for 2 weeks to try and look for that bird?

I imagine the female bosses the male around, but maybe I am anthropomorphizing there based on my experience in recently working on an apartment with my wife. This Grey-capped Pygmy Woodpecker in particular is a species I would like to get much better photos of. While the female is less hidden, sadly, it is also less attractive.
