The Western tanager was seen again today in Upper Sandusky. After
talking to the homeowners it has been there since Wednesday. The
homeowners are welcome to visitors. It is in a residential
neighborhood but there is very little traffic. The bird comes to the
suet feeder in the front of the house. So far, every time it comes
from over the roof. It has been on the porch and in the landscaping
also. Lots of pictures were taken by several folks. It is an adult
male in breeding plumage. Beautiful bird! There is plenty of food and
cover. I think the bird will stay until the winds are right for moving
on.  In a cool aside, Tom Bartlett banded a Red-headed woodpecker,
Downy woodpecker, Red-bellied woodpecker, and Yellow bellied sapsucker
all in the same round today. It was a cool picture.Good luck to
everyone enjoying migration.
