Trees, Bird Holes, Woodpecker

One walk I decided to take a few pictures of some of the many holes, up high in the trees, from the many woodpeckers in our woods. We often have Downey, Hairy, Pileated, and Red-Bellied Woodpeckers pecking away around our house. I adore birds; especially woodpeckers and cherish each sighting.

| The past few weeks I've come across trees that have a bunch of dried up old bug bodies and cocoons all circled around the base of a tree. I'm guessing something is desperate for food and is digging into old chrysalis's looking for nutrition. |

| I'm guessing this is some kind of squirrel nest |
 |
| Pileated Woodpecker--the largest woodpecker in our area |
 |
| I believe this is a Red-bellied Woodpecker |

| I was really far away using my scope to get this picture |

Love the pictures! Brrrr, sure looks cold for what we would call spring (we have warm temps, and it just rains like crazy) :D
