I am not sure if he is the bruiser or the bruisee, but either way, I have a Red-bellied Woodpecker hanging around the yard again. It seems to me that the sky always looks bluer (when it’s not gray, cloudy, snowing) in winter. To see other skies, check out Skywatch.
Stumble It!
Behind the Bins 
I love a blue winter sky. Not as much as a summer one, but as long there is hot cocao and rum at the end of it, I can endure.
They make such a unique sound, enjoy your new friend!
Beautiful shot and bird.
The sky does look bluer in winter, I agree. Great SkyWatch photo. Pictures are always more fun with “people” in them. 🙂
I am glad you are seeing a blue sky..I know that you all have had a cold ..snowy winter!
Heres..to more blue skies and birdies!
I’m not sure if it’s bluer – it might be – or if we just appreciate it more.
By the way, Picusblog (www.picusblog.com) collects woodpecker posts.
