Restful Afternoon


The snow has mostly melted now, but here's a picture before it did, with the woods looking extra pretty in the sunlight.

I'm still recovering from my cold, and this afternoon I laid down to rest for a while. I can see into the woods from the picture windown in the bedroom, so I rested and watched birds at the same time.

Today seemed to be woodpecker day. At one point I had three different species on the same tree--northern flicker, downy woodpecker and red-bellied woodpecer--looking like an illustration from a field guide.

I also saw a turkey vulture today, every though it was only 15oF at the time.

The dogs joined me on the bed and kept me warm.
