Mr. & Mrs. Hairy


Not one but two Hairy Woodpeckers visiting the suet feeder this afternoon- looked like a pair. Very shy- but they stuck around long enough to get some through-the-window shots with the long lens. A Downy was feeding at the same time so they may have felt a little safer. Hopefully the pair will find enough to their liking around our yard that they'll find a place to stash an egg or two nearby.

Noticed a large patch of tiny violet colored crocus of some kind in bloom on Gallows Road today. There's a few lawns in that area that have hundreds of the same type in bloom in March.
