the remains of the day

We had a really cool visitor to our yard this week:

(That’s a pileated woodpecker, and it’s HUGE.)

(And isn’t that a cool piece of wood? It’s from a neighbor’s tree that came down in a storm and it was too big to chop into firewood by hand, so it frames one corner of our butterfly garden. I LOVE that funky chunk of wood.)

Have a great weekend, everyone!

    that’s awesome! both the bird and the wood, I love old gnarled chunks, they have character like old people’s faces do :).

      They do have so much character. It would make a GREAT coffee table (if we could pick it up and move it) or a desk (if we had a way to slice it thinner). :-)

    I heard our neighborhood pileated pair the other day but haven’t seen them.

    He clearly loves that chunk of wood too :)
