[Birdtalk] Downy vs. Hairy in Salt Lake

[Dave Slager]

This morning I went to Miller Park (at approximately 900 S and 1900 E
in SLC) hoping for some passerine migrants.  No migrants, but I did
see a female Hairy woodpecker harassing a pair of Downies while the
male Downy was excavating a nest hole.

In the same area I found a male Lesser Goldfinch feeding his mate on the nest.

Good birding,
