    We have a woodpecker here often but I think the nest is in the Dr's yard over the road as I have not tracked it down so far :( Great photos. Diane

    I've only heard their "rapping" but have never seen what they can really produce! A large hole! Great photos!

    I'm surprised to find that a bird digs such a big hole.
    I's nice that your garden is enough large to welcome the bird.

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
