Up close with Mr. Downy Woodpecker

This Downy Woodpecker is the smallest woodpecker at our feeders and a frequent visitor with his mate. She looks just the same, but without his lovely red cap.


Extras, Mr. Downy with his peanut and a Tufted Titmouse

Almost Inauguration Day, fingers crossed for a peaceful day.


For the Record,
This day came in very windy, dropping the temperature. We did some safe errands(the dump and the birdseed store) and made a  local food pantry donation for the MLK Service weekend Then we collected up our curbside pick up grocery order at Whole Foods. It's too scary to shop in person now.  T's sister came over and we had a 45 minute walk in the hilly Hanover Cemetery, masked and distanced.


All hands wary
