Are you tired?  I think Santa looks tired.

As is often the case, once I see a Red-breasted Sapsucker, I see it several times for a week or so - always hard at work on the same tree.

This is the third day that the bird has been hard at work.  

He's easy to see - I look out the window while eating my breakfast and there he is.

It's a BIG Douglas fir, so he has lots to work with.

The Acorn Woodpeckers have been frequent visitors too.

Here's two guys on a blue sky day.

Another day there were three birds - can you see all of them?

The bird bird is on a fence post above the bird hanging from the bell on the left.

The trio included a female.

And two males.

Male #1

Male #2
