Woodpecker by hjbenson

Woodpecker

We went over with our friends to his niece's home. She has started going into the family genealogy. Gail has done a lot on the family over the years for our friends so we were helping them out. They live in Portland on the side of a ravine, a very beautiful area. I was able to get this woodpecker from their back porch. Best Viewed Large.
