Red Bellied Woodpecker

A colorful visitor to the bird table this evening, just in time for a blip. Gives the lie to my theory that the bigger the bird the more skittish it is - this woodpecker didn't seem to notice me at all. Perhaps some species are just more observant than others?

Otherwise, a busy day, finishing our unpacking (!) and making space in the garage for the cars (!!) and generally preparing for winter. A good day for finding things too - my winter hat, a book that I thought was lost and Mr. L. found his long underwear which was a cause for much celebration.
