For the past six days I've had at least six woodpecker species in my yard each day. On five of those days no Pileateds were seen, but on Sunday one flew by and gave me seven woodpecker species for the day.

When a Blue Jay started scooping up ten peanuts at a time, a Red-bellied took a stand.
As September came to a close I still had one Ruby-throated Hummingbird but earlier in the month a lot of energy was wasted as multiple hummingbirds spent more time fighting than feeding.
