Last winter, I put some suet on an old spruce stump about three feet high.
It was a great attractant for starlings and blue jays, and that flock of
starlings ended up attanting an accipiter (probably a big sharp-shin, but I
still wonder), which had at least one meal, thanks to the flock.  

 

Just a thought . J.

I have a sharp-shinned and the red-bellied woodpecker in my area (Falmouth)
was at my suet feeder twice but was skittish and was in and out again. I
couldn't get anything better than a blurry picture. I'm guessing that having
a bright red head may have something to do with it!

Sad news from Sunnybrook that the red-bellied woodpecker there ended up as a
meal for a hawk.  Probabably a sharp-shinned, but they need food too and it
has been a hard winter on all birds I believe.
