Lots of Acorn Woodpecker action lately.

Wednesday morning the Ravens appeared to find the active Acorn Woodpecker nest.  The Acorns yelled and screamed and attempted to mob the much larger Ravens and drive them off.  All to no avail.  The Ravens thunked on the tree trying to enlarge the hole. I watched for about 20 minutes and then had to leave, s do not know the eventual outcome.  Some times Nature just IS!
