People asked for some bird behavior.... So here's some! :)
----------------------------------------------------
This past summer,
At Indian Lake; Logan County:
My grandpa and I were fishing and pasted some islands. We stopped at one of
our favorite spots and I noticed 2 Belted Kingfishers on a power line
crossing the lake.
This was amazing, one of the kingfishers was flying about a foot or less
around the other Kingfisher. Then the one flying would perch a couple times
and would be shaking its wings. Showing the beautiful under wing of the
Kingfisher, with a teal, spotted underwing. Then the " dancer " started to
do a machine gun call and more " dancing " then the two flew away. Amazing
sight.

Woodpecker Behavior:
Urbana; Champaign County
Then my 2nd story for Bird Behavior, Is about woodpeckers at my
grandmothers feeders.
The Downy, Red bellied and I guess Nuthatches, not a woodpecker but alike,
have been feeding on the ground a lot, with the juncos and sparrows. This
was weird because our suet feeders were still filled. Also! They even go to
the bird baths! Odd behavior for these woodpeckers....some of you may have
this type of behavior as well.
