Lunch Time!

After 16 years and bugs got into it, our birch tree died.

"Woody" the Hairy Woodpecker loves it and comes frequently for lunch.

Beautiful picture, Marinus!

Thank you - this is a wonderful picture of a Woodpecker!

Yes, that is the little Downy Woodpecker, it is a male and the female doesn't have the red spot on top.
