Good Morning All,

Iona my heart goes out to you, two loses in such a short time. I wish I could wrap you in my arms and make it better.

Elle - love your turkman, he is so much like my porter.

I had a very interesting visitor this weekend. I had a juvenile pileated woodpecker feeding from my suit feeder this weekend. He was small, but definitely pileated. I have never seen one of them at my feeders before. My suit feeder is especially made for woodpeckers, it has a long wooden extension for them to rest their tails against. He stayed about 6-8 minutes.

We had cold weather over the weekend, but not too wet. But tomorrow we have a potential for ice and snow - bluck

Hugs all around,

I am so sorry Iona....no words can uplift you but I'll try.....

A beautiful life,
an angel above,
Smiling on down,
filling you with love.

Iona, as you said, the news of your niece
is devastating and heartbreaking. May your families's love and strength help to comfort each other. Hugs

Windy: Are you sure it wasn't a Downy Woodpecker?
Yes Porter and Turkeyman are alike.

Iona: I expressed my condolences on FB and will do so here as well. It is hard to believe and a devastating loss of such a young spark. My condolences to you and your family. No words suffice.

Elle - certain it was not a downy or a red breasted woodpecker, I get lots of those. It definitely had the pileated markings and crest, and was larger than a downy and slightly bigger than the red breasted. Wish I could have got a picture. I was pretty shocked myself and took out the binoculars to get a closer look. I guess the fellow was just hungry enough to chance it. He didn't look to be in poor health from what I could see.

Hugs all,

[elle]

Windy: Cool.

I am off to Ucluelet/ Tofino for 3 days .

See ya at the weekend.

Evening Luvs,

Dearest Iona, holding you close in thoughts and blessings prayers.
Thanks for the nest visit Happiness.

Elle&Ian, enjoy, and bring us some pics please.

Wind, I'm now in pileated country, so more to learn for me and looking forward to it. I'm pleased to live in my local one's territory.

I've also had a red bellied stopping by the yard.

Every day i see/hear the red shouldered hawk. Yesterday it was being harassed by a crow and stopped on a limb about 10 yards above my back porch; got a good look. I also read hawks and crows nest in proximity to each other for the benefit each offers. A love/hate/tolerate relation.

the poem for Iona & loved ones, Carolyn.

Scott, the BBu's seem to hit home often.
