    I fully agree with your dad! There is not enough time in a day now. What would I do if I had to hold down a regular job? :whistle:

    You've never seen a couple of Pileated Woodpeckers in action?
    Chips flying is an understatement

    Have medical appointment drives the next two days. supposed to rain on the weekend so the muck factor should only get worse. On the topic of the WP's, for sure they can make the chips fly, especially when they teach the two or three off spring how to food hunt, but that's nature..............

    Here are a couple of pics of a poplar that had been attacked by one of those pileated wood peckers. Notice all of the chips on the ground. DSC01544.JPG DSC01546.JPG DSC01545.JPG

    Right where I want to be.
    Got some trees that have a similar look.
    Woodies stay bizzy around here.
