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!

  4. 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!).
