January 19, 2017


Location: Sebastian, North County Regional Park

This Red-bellied Woodpecker was nomming on some bugs on a tree until a grumpy Mockingbird chased him off.  I wish I could say something deep and meaningful about Red-bellied Woodpeckers, but sadly, a song that my dad used to sing to me1 popped into my head. My honeybee was with me this morning, so I felt the need to serenade him with the song my dad used to sing to me. Things like this song being stuck in my head is why I never have and never will be able to accomplish anything in my life. "Take it out! Take it out! Remoooooove it!"
