Getaway

The Downy Woodpecker doesn't linger long at the sunflower feeder, opting instead to swoop in, grab a seed and make a getaway.

Still snowbound here but I'm hopeful we'll see some patches of bare earth appearing soon.

what a graceful retreat after a precision strike...it seems your patience has been taxed this winter...hang in there, as soon there will be mud on the boots..
