One of the main reasons for making this suet log feeder was to attract more woodpeckers. This Downy Woodpecker didn't take long to show up, and he's been hungry!

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

The Spotted Pardalote's name is actually "spotted" twice. The word "pardalote" comes from ancient Greek pardalōtos, meaning "spotted like a leopard," and its scientific name Pardalotus punctatus also means "spotted".

Male Spotted Pardalote standing at a bird bath. These tiny birds earned the beautiful nickname "diamond bird" because of their jewellike white spots that sparkle across their black head and wings.
