Eventually one male Common Grackle arrived, visited sever= al times and had sunflower seeds. A single female Cowbird was the only o= ther blackbird seen visiting today. Also happily witnessed 6 species of woodpecker today (Red-bellies, Flicke= r, Sapsucker, Downies, Hairy, and Pileated) and a yard male Northern Harr= ier.
