Bristolwood and Beyond

Waiting His Turn...

Frustrated that the landscape has turned from a pretty white canvas to a dreadful gray/brown/muddy landscape, I was getting a bit dismayed about where or what I might Blip today!

I totally missed a very loudly squawking pair of Red-Bellied Woodpeckers. They alerted me of their presence, but when I walked past the window to grab my camera, they quickly flew away. Drat!

That was when *he* appeared! This cute little Downy Woodpecker sat on a branch, looking all fluffy and patiently waiting for his turn to fly down to the feeder to grab some seeds. This little fellow seemed to see me, but remained on the branch. I just missed him scratching his head. You can see his left leg is folded into his feathers...He sure did brighten this rather gloomy day!
