l have been a part of a few successful wildlife rescues and educate people on wildlife and environmental issues. We have helped in issues to save wetlands, woodlands etc.to save the precious life within. It is well worth the effort. We can all learn to live and work together. Education is the key. In 2011 I won an education award from Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority for the work and photography I do. Habitat is fast disappearing and with it, many species are also declining in numbers. So many species can actually tell us the health of our environment and alert us to problems we need to know about. They all need to be protected.

Red Headed Woodpecker,May,12,2010

l was getting a bit antsy on the lateness of the red headed coming back. When he showed up today around 11. Although new feathers have grown over the spot on his head. l could just notice that there is a wee scar there. Same guy from last year. Amazing. And another great surprise,his mate is with him.
So there has been a lot of calling and flitting about here all day with the two. And the nest cavity the red bellied woodpeckers built this spring. Well it is again being investigated by yet another bird pair. Red bellieds built it,Northern flickers checked it out and did a bit of renovating and now the red headed woodpeckers are checking it out. Will be interesting if this nest finally gets used.
