SUNDAY STROLL- WOODY WOODPECKER ATE HERE

Here in the woods just off our front porch is a tree whose top broke off some time ago. It became a prime dining table for all the Woodpeckers in the woods.
As you can see here, the master drillers, the Pileated Woodpeckers prepared the table. Their boring into the wood sounds like a jack hammer: rat-a-tat-tat resounds throughout the woods.
Their evidence of dining pleasure is found all through the woods. Their call isn't exactly like Woody Woodpecker, but close enough to let you know they are here.


Today I'm keeping it short and close to the house. We will be away from home after church and I wanted to at least have a little stroll.
For more strolling make a bee line to The Quiet Country House.
