We have a lot of woodpeckers around. The dogs and I often hear them on our morning walks. We also see them around a lot. Lee and I were out exploring the yard, as the snow that was left was not deep and found some handy work at the base of a dead tree.
We have some in the neighborhood too.
ReplyDeleteThat is very interesting. We've never seen woodpeckers working so low to the ground.
ReplyDeleteWhenever we see woodpeckers, they're usually high up in a tree. We didn't know they might forage so close to the ground.
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought to close to ground too... then I ofound this. (I know, I can't help myself!) YAM xx
Nice link! Those do look like Pileated Woodpecker holes!
DeleteYikes! I'm sure that Woody is finding lots of bugs to eat but that tree is going to fall one day if he isn't careful!
ReplyDeleteDear Handsome Phod and Ojo's Cousin Lee,
ReplyDeleteWe have a woodpecker that announces Himself every morning by pecking on the metal on the lamp post outside our house. Our people are ready to shoot him down.
Licks,
Cobi
Mr Woody Woodpecker could make big bucks in the tree removal business

Noisy things too, woodpeckers!
ReplyDeleteThe poor woodpeckers must have been cold being down below the snow to peck! ;)

ReplyDeleteYours sincerely,

Ratta-tat-tat. We have a couple in our neighborhood who tap on metal chimney pieces. Hate to be in those heads!
ReplyDeleteWoody wooftastic work!
ReplyDeleteWe also have many woodpeckers. Some breed very close to our house. We get to see the babies!
