I got a wonderful birthday present from someone who knows me well.
I immediately hung it up and put some seed inside. Chickadees were quick to find it and land on the little porch. But then another backyard visitor not only found it but regularly enters and walks around inside. Here are some photos of our female Downy Woodpecker.
Here is the web address for these adorable little houses made in Montreal:

It means the world to me.

A very secure place to be. – Annette Hershey

That’s wonderful…what fun seeing photos of the woodpecker appearing to be checking out new digs.
What a charming gift! And such a delightful, appreciative visitor. She won’t knock holes in it, looking for insects?
Happy Birthday, Miles!
