Fructivory in Dryocopus pileatus
http://tangledbranches.com/blog/2008/10/fructivory-in-dryocopus-pileatus.htmlSounds like the title of a very dry scientific paper. I didn't know that Pileated Woodpeckers like dogwood berries. Labels: birds posted by Entangled at 1:05 PM…

Hibiscus Jam 1.0
http://tangledbranches.com/food/blog/2008/09/hibiscus-jam-10...the two recipes that made it to the championship round, one had twice the amount of sugar as the other.
