A nice surprise, we don't see the yellow-bellied sapsucker every year, although I can go look at the rows of horizontal drill holes on a few of our mature trees in the woods at any time. I also heard this bird or its companion in the woods shortly after it made the spectacular landing on our suet feeder and then moved to the large red oak. It's tappity tapping sounded exactly like Frederick Exley typing his memoirs one night in a room next to ours at the Hulburt House in Boonville NY. Really, typewriters used to sound like that.
The turkeys were under the bird-seed feeder for a little while.
