woodpecker
There was a woodpecker this morning on the kid's tree outside my office window. Didn't have an opportunity to take a photograph, but he (she? are female woodpeckers as colorful as males?) was a delight! Attached himself (herself?) to the side of the tree and doggedly pecked away for a minute or so before flitting off into the backyard. So very cool. A simple sighting of one of nature's miracles in action. The world is an amazing place to include a creature so perfectly adapted, able to use his (her?) feathered red head as a hammer to gain sustenance.
