Mallards
Over the years a number of mallards have nested or attempted to nest at the garden, but possibly less so in recent years as the garden has become increasingly busy.

Red-breasted nuthatch
Koby photographed this species some weeks ago at the garden, and clearly it is still around. One year a pair tried to nest at the garden, in a short snag that was evidently too exposed and too busy, and as far as I know, they haven't tried again. But perhaps this year?

Pileated woodpecker, male
Pileated woodpeckers seem to be doing well in this region, signs and sightings of them in many locations, including here at the garden. Koby got a couple of great photos of this male hard at work.
