Blue sky, gorgeous day, and not too warm - 63 F/17 C at 2 pm. The sun is slowly chasing off the damp chill from the last couple of days.
Only the small trees and shrubs are showing green in my corner of SW Michigan. The larger trees have buds about ready to pop, but they're being slow about it. Maybe they're worried there is going to be more snow.
The tree top in the picture is an old, tall oak in the hedgerow.
Certainly by next Saturday we should have green leaves in my sky picture.
"This brick is a little hard on the beak."
I have friends with cedar homes who have to continually repair the holes in their siding created by woodpeckers. Fortunately, I learned from their plight and bought a brick house when we moved to the country.
I love all our woodpeckers. It would break my heart to have to try and chase them off.
And, if my friends are any indication, it isn't really possible to discourage them once they decide a house is tasty.
