Red-Headed Woodpeckers

We drive the green ways.
Always ready to pull over.

About a mile from our house is a large city park.
The Red-Headed Woodpeckers live there.

Here the park rangers have allowed the dead trees to stand.
Nesting spots for the Red-Headed Woodpeckers.

Hi Astraragant,
Good Day to you too.
It is exciting for me that the photos will be part of your assignment. Thank you for asking to use them and for giving me credit for taking them.
One aspect of my photography is for education. I feel honoured that you are able to use them.
Your English is just fine. I understood and that is what communication is all about.
Hope you get good marks on your work. Let me know!

Dear Deb,
I am pleased the photos are enjoyed. Hopefully people will see the beauty that is all around them, wherever they live. I am not in the fanciest part of the city, just a little neighborhood.
All it takes is awareness, kindness and respect and the wildlife have a chance to live with mankind.
