Red-headed Woodpeckers will stay here year-round in southeastern Michigan, unless food is scarce. If they cannot find enough acorns and nuts to cache — these birds are one of the few woodpeckers that cache food — they will head south.
My first-of-season long-eared owl the other night. This was one of my 1AM specials: an unexpected sighting right before the park closes and I have to leave. (Central Park, New York)
