Woodpecker did peck wood... some busy pecker has left a large amount of debris on the ottoman in my backyard.

For the past several years we've had woodpeckers nesting in the tree. I wonder if any of the past fledglings have returned?

An embroidery for my folks’ 40th anniversary. Backing is improv crumb quilt, and once I found the bird for the appliqué I improvised the embroidery all around it.

An American kestrel for the third #BirdOnAWire series. This one from #mercedNWR is the best yet I have of the species.

I usually spend 31st Dec doing a spot of birding but it’s been raining the whole day. So I ended up baking some keto friendly sugar free biscuits instead…

Second post for #BirdOnAWire
is a Western Meadowlark from Panoche Valley shot early spring this year. The purple hue in the background are from wildflowers accentuated by the #Velvia film simulation from the #FujiFilm camera.
