ps: If you happen to spot the Pileated Woodpeckers anywhere around Montlake, during the next couple of weeks, I would certainly love a high-speed email at:

Thank you! It feels like they have been playing hard to get this year.
Burning With Fire
Even though this post is titled ‘Burning With Fire’ and it is primarily about crows it is NOT about crows learning to cook with fire. Take a look for yourself to see the variety of items a crow will consume. See more at:

Dreams of Spring
It is impossible to know what a heron dreams. It might be frogs and fish or it could be wishing for the warmer weather and sunshine of Spring. The dreams and signs of Spring are all around us. Bundle up and step outside to see them or if you are pressed for time just visit:

Union Bay Watch | In The Mood?
This week’s post is about Downy Woodpeckers. Have you ever wondered if birds have feelings? If you have any doubt I believe this post will help you resolve the issue. I hope you enjoy it!
Please visit: Union Bay Watch
By the way, at the end of the post there is a short reference to the shorebird petition. It contains a link to a video of a Dunlin murmuration. It is not my work so I feel free to say, it is amazing! I can’t stop watching it. If you haven’t signed the petition yet, please do!
Have a great day on Union Bay…where shorebirds hope to migrate through the city!
