It was a gorgeous day outside, so decided to take a walk in Mundy. It was very sweet to hear Chickadees doing "phoebeee". Then there was real Phoebe doing his non-stop "phirbee". From the creek I heard an incessant chatter of a Belted Kingfisher for long time. No mergansers on the creek, but I did see a quiet Brown Creeper creeping up a basswood trunk, that had been utilized by the Sapsuckers in the past.
Talking of Sapsuckers, this year I am again looking for sapsuckers trees with sap holes. I am interested in the xylem sap too! Please let me know if you would not mind sharing the secret sites of these creatures! Thanks in advance.
