Hi all yesterday  6 - 4 - 06   I did some more  Atlasing in My Centreville  
CW  block iIn Queen Annes  County.   I  came  across a  Pileated Woodpecker  
on a log on  the ground  in the deep shade ,  one heard calling as well . A 
littlle latter I saw two fly out into the sunlight on the ground . I  walked 
up for a better view  saw two fly up to some trees .Upon scaning around  I  
located  1 adult  female  and  2 recently fledged young .  The yougsters 
were about the same size as the adult  just a bit smaller  and the red on  
the crests  of the young birds was a  paler red then the adult   also had a 
shoter tail. The adult seemed to be showing  them  how and were to find   
food.  The young could fly  but never  strayed to far and followed the 
female around  that was a thrilling  confrimation .

Other Birds of note

Yellow Billed Cuckoo   2      not a sound from them   would have been a nice 
upgrade  but not safe yet
Hairy woodpecker  bumped up to  probable  on territory
Blue Jay  2   Carrying  food  going to the  same  area several times   
Confrimed in this  block already  though

Tufted  Titmouse  2      new for the block
White Breasted Nuthatch    1 heard only


Happy Birding
