A Northern Flicker! My favorite kind of bird

You might change your mind when they start drilling holes in the side of your house.

My brother usually visits in October. He used to ask who is knocking until he got to see them pounding on the house.

I’ve never had an issue with that, but there aren’t a ton of them in my area - they’re actually a pretty rare find

They are only here during the fall and winter. I have had to repair the holes they drilled to get into the attic.

Their mating ritual is delightful to watch.

That looks professionally done. So... How much are your services
I could never get it to look that good. I am cursed at picking out colors I think I'm going to like and then come to regret all my life choices.

I can’t take full credit…..mr muddy is the true talent
I still tape the paper swatches to the wall when choosing colors but you can also get samples to try-on. And I’ve learned a lot from previous color mistakes

He's inside now. He's the only one of my cats that has not been a house cat for his whole life. He did run out once when it was 17 degrees outside. He was back within 30 minutes yowling to be let back in.

I can't wait for my house to be done so I can move in, not just have a cot and a few things.

I’m sure this last few weeks is starting to feel as long as the last 6 months!

No kidding! My counters are going in on Wednesday, and the builder and his crew are going to be here next week getting most of it done. I still won't have a kitchen because those require a plumber and an electrician who probably won't be before next year.

It just dropped from 32°F to zero in one hour.

This morning was downright warm. 36 degrees felt that way, at least.

It's down to -6°F now. Looks like it's coming straight out of the north.

@Wickedchicken6 is up to sharing again.
