🦅🦆🐥Birdwatcher Wednesday Keep an eye out for these 3 Birds this month as you hike around Western PA. Have a favorite spot to find them? Leave a comment to help fellow birdwatchers. Golden-crowned Kinglet This tiny songbird appears highly caffeinated as it gives out a high pitch “zee-zee-zee.” It works its way through trees in search of small insects, insect eggs, and spiders. Yellow-bellied Sapsucker This medium-sized woodpecker is named for their yellowish belly and love of drinking the sap of trees. In early spring, they are known for drilling holes in neat rows in maples, birches, hickories, and fruit trees. Hooded Merganser This smaller diving duck returns to the area in November. The male has a hammerhead black and white crest. The female is a gray brown with a cinnamon crest. 📸DMendenhall
