Great pictures of a leucistic hummingbird-check out the story:

“I have always wanted to see either an albino or leucistic, and over the years have never had it happen until now,” he said. “My friend Roger Johnson has hummingbird feeders all over his place in Opelika, and always has an eye out for the birds.”

Hummingbird Trapped In Spider Web

Bird Feeder

"I've rescued about four or five hummingbirds," George Stone said, "but I'd never seen one trapped in a web like that before."

"After discovering the bird was still alive, the couple brought the bird inside and attempted to remove and clean off as much of the web as possible. They then fed it a bottle cap-full of a sugar-water mixture, which the bird eagerly lapped up."

Pileated Woodpecker Visits The Suet Feeder

Bird Feeder

There are some nice pictures of a pileated woodpecker on this post:

 I poked my head outside and had a look and yes, there was an older juvenile Pileated Woodpecker in the old dead Oak next to the suet feeder.  The bird kept up its calling and I looked at the suet feeder.  Sure enough, there was a Grey Squirrel up on the feeder furtively snatching suet as fast as it could.
