Thought it was a pileated at first until I realized how small it was .. First one I've ever seen . -- Snag |

First one I've ever seen . Might have been checking for bugs. Might just be living up (or down) to its name (I have a bunch of trees with patterns of holes those guys drill.) I'm a bit concerned that we might be in for a repeat of a few years back, when it hit 80°F in early March, and then froze all the buds/flowers off the fruit trees in late April. Pretty much doodly-squat for fruit that year. -- Cats, coffee, chocolate...vices to live by Please don't feed the trolls. Killfile and ignore them so they will go away. |
