Thanks for the reminder on Hummingbird feeders!

I had 8 Chipping Sparrows visiting my feeders all day - new arrivals and a 
new yard bird.

There were also Blue Jays attempting to build a nest in a neighbors yard 
without much success.  I really didn't think they started to nest so early.

Unsolicited advice on Pileated Woodpeckers - I've had my best luck finding 
their nest holes just before all of the trees leaf out.  Get to it now if 
you can.  Last year about this time I found them getting all upset over a 
pair of Northern Flickers trying to take over the nest.
