The crazy part is some trays I had seeds in that didn't sprout when my plants growing now did, are sprouting like crazy. I have like 20 little plants going.

How are your tray plants turning out?

I kind of ignored them, but they're still hanging in there. Undoubtedly the likely need to be transplanted now. It's been mild weather for the most part, only a couple of nights hit freezing so far. Weather is close tp springtine like now. I'm almost ready to start the spring planting alread, but I'll pro ably wait a couple of more weeks.

Weather has been fluctuating too much here to do any transplanting yet. We had a couple of days in the mid-50s F a couple of weeks ago, but
we've had a couple of snows since, and the forecast for the end of this weekend is highs in the upper teens. :O
I also have a half dozen or so redheaded woodpeckers hanging out in my Camphor tree for some reason. It's not very big as it's only about 5 years old.
I Suppose that is possuble, The camphor is also the only tree in my yard with leaves currently.

The could be hiding from predators then. The only trees in my yard with leaves are the hollys (which are really tall bushes, I guess) and the evergreens (pines, cypress, and cedar). They don't seem to hang out in those much.

That could well be. There are a pair of hawks around. My wife doesn't lije letting our little dogs out when we see them flying.

I sometimes see a hawk or falcon flying around this area. I notice them because I hear the crows cawing a lot, then I look up and notice they are chasing something.
It is usually a turkey vulture (the kind that only go after already dead things) but, I have noticed if I pay attention a lot of times it is not.
I have been wanting to get a closer look at the raptor... we have perrigrines in the area and I like those. :)
I'm in a semi rural area surrounded by city. Meaning there are plenty of wooded Areas and a bayou near by, and I've got neighbors with land enough to raise horses cows or goats. It also means plenty of area for opposum and racoons to hang ut. So I get Turkeu vulutures for roadkill as well as raptors for the small critters. Occassionally I can even spot an owl, which is cool because my wife likes owls,
I live in an area that is on the edge of a city. I am within walking distance of a cornfield, a cattle farm, a tobacco field, and some wooded areas. :) We get deer through here all the time. Plenty of squirrels.
I have never seen a racoon or a (live) opposum but I know the latter is around anyway.
While not in my immediate area, there are plenty of cliffs nearby. The vultures seem to like hanging out in those. In more recent years, I have actually seen a bunch just hanging around in some not so tall trees 2-3 miles from here.
I am always on the lookout for owls but never seem to see any. Do sometimes see hawks, but never get a close enough look to see what kind.
I don't have any deer around, which is probably a good thing. Lots of hunters >in the area.
The hawks live in the park about a mile away, it's got a nice nature trail that's only warning is to watch out for alligators where the path goes iver the bayou.

Is that in Louisiana?

No sir, I'm in Houston Texas. But a lot of this area was swampland as well. There are many many bayous that run through the Houston area.
