Visit to Garden in the Woods

Turns out the electric company was doing network upgrades in our neighborhood, and the power had to be shut off this morning.  Since I work at home, that turned into unexpected free time!  Off to Garden in the Woods I went!

That video demonstrates how easy it was to locate this nest because of the amount of noise the little woodpecker was making, begging for food!  So cute!
