For about 10 days now there has been 2 toms and 3 jakes in display and gobbling, following the group of 10 hens that come into the yard several times a day to eat corn and bird seed.

I am also thrilled that the female pileated woodpecker is still coming regularly to eat crunchy peanut butter that I have smeared on two trees.  The male comes occasionally.
