Monsieur Palliated Woodpecker
spent a long time tapping the base of this tree
I began wondering if this would be the next tree to fall
and
obviously one of our local squirrels thought it was a bit too much
all this tap tap tapping on his tree
so he came to find out what was going on.
Such a funny photo, I always thought that the woodpecker cartoon characters, that pecked away at trees for ages was over exaggerated...but now I know the it is true! Jenny from Australia
