It has been a very good Good Friday!!!

Had a Red Headed Woodpecker feeding on the ground below a window. At about 30 
feet was able to
look down on him or her (found they are the same according to Peterson). Two 
things struck me.
One was the size, much larger than I expected. The other was the white on the 
rump and wings 
when it flew.  Later in the day it came back to feed on a suet cake on the 
deck. 

It was a very good day.
