There's some kind of woodpecker that won't shut the fuck up at like 6am right outside my window.

So, so many geese here, too. I think they're from Montreal though, so thankfully they keep moving (I think it's because they think the food is shit... typical).

We also occasionally see a cardinal, and get tons of robin, finch, ravens, and hummingbird. If we put peanuts out in the yard, we get blue jays, but they're fucking noisy assholes, so we try not to do that; they compete with all of the squirrels, so it's fucking thunderdome when the peanuts go out.

We get lots of hawks and even some bald eagles here, too. Most interestingly, however, are the Peregrine Falcons; they're tiny little guys, but also the fastest animal on Earth.

Lots of seabirds as the shoreline covers the whole length of the state, but the variety is pretty impressive. As for noticing them, yeah there are always some around, but it's always the more mundane ones. Unless I'm camping or something. Lost of ducks in the warmer months, lots of pigeons, doves, woodpeckers, flycatchers, shrieks, ravens, swallows; that sort of thing as I live a bit far from the shore. I love hearing them in the morning, but I'm usually passed out at that time.

Have a blast Stumeister
