What makes a great weekend?

1. A long walk in the sunshine before the snow started falling.

2. Really cool birds enjoying really cold weather.

3. An article accepted by an academic journal in record time.

4. A completed draft of the next article for submission.

5. Homemade broccoli soup with triple-cheese-and-chive bread.

Congrats about the lovely weekend, Bev.

And that article accepted at a journal ain't bad news, either!

Wow, great photos!

Downy Woodpecker?

Bev said...

Yes, that's definitely a downy woodpecker, and the other one is a female cardinal (as I'm sure you know). They kept coming back to the feeders so I got a ton of pictures. These are the best. The bigger red-bellied woodpeckers will not visit the feeders when I have the camera out, even though I'm well hidden inside the house and shooting out an open window (in the freezing cold!).

Congrats on the journal piece and next time you're having that soup - call me for dinner :)
