Hm, Carol,

I've wondered the last 2 or 3  yrs. why narrow strips of bark have been 
peeled from a cedar tree. Didn't look like where a deer
had rubbed its antlers on the tree yrs. ago. I noticed the missing bark 
when I went to get thin strips of bark for our son when he
was here teaching some people survival techniques including how to start 
fires. Thanks for the heads up!

 A starling was peeling bark off my River Birch. I assume it was for

never peeling bark.

[cayugabirds-l] Observation

2016-05-09 Thread Carol Keeler
I just watched something cool through my kitchen window.  A starling was 
peeling bark off my River Birch.  I assume it was for nesting material.  I've 
watched birds gather many nesting materials but never peeling bark.
