A baby weasel riding a green woodpecker

The woodpeckers are ground-feeding birds. The weasel attacked and bit off a little more than he could chew.

One morning I heard what sounded like construction going on outside and when I went I saw a completely destroyed tree stump and one of these guys



A pileated woodpecker. They're over a foot long so they look comically large compared to other woodpeckers

I live in an area where they're common. If you ever hear what sounds like an axe or hammer wailing away at something wooden, there's a good chance it's one of those.

Pretty bird

There's swallows nesting somewhere near the office; I can tell by the mated pair flying around and making GBS threads on people. But I can't find the nest!

The actual potoo cry is a hoarse and loud "Moooooooom! Mooooooooom!" If you youtube "potoo call" it turns up in one of the first results.

The three roles of APCs:
Transports.
Supply trucks.
Distractions.

Moorhens are pretty great, especially because they sound like squeaky toys. Here's a photo I took the other year of a parent feeding its chick:



Oddly enough, the chicks look more like the adults than the juveniles do - they start out black with red beaks, turn brown, and then go back to black with red beaks.
