love the tap dancing on the bark...i sit with my bus on a back country road some mornings and have videos of the woodpeckers song, never close enough to capture his image but you brought the image to life wonderfully :) hugs

Hello Edward, Awsome! I thought the woodpecker was only red. If the black woodpecker met the red woodpecker, they woulfd be two colors. I think that would be beautiful . blessings my friend.

Woodpeckers, whatever color, are such beautiful, magnificent birds. Thanks for the visit and feedback as always, Darlene!:-)
