May 18

Common birds: house sparrow, blue jay, cardinal (pair), mourning dove, grackle, starling, robin, downy woodpecker (female, male?), goldfinch, chickadee?, red-tailed hawk

Spring visitors: redwing blackbird (pair), veery, baltimore oriole?, turkey vulture, philadelphia vireo?, mallard duck?, northern parula warbler, blackburnian warbler (pair?), american redstart (male), yellow bellied sapsucker?

My notes from the 18th mention a 'bigger woodpecker'.  What I see most often is the downy, which is little.  The hairy is slightly larger, but if this was a noticeably bigger one, it was probably the sapsucker, which I have also been seeing this fall.
