for the last few days I’ve been watching the flickers on the roof of the garage enjoying the berries on the Virginia creeper… it has been a nice distraction as I go up and down the stairs, still using the cane…

they seem to gather around this time of year to fill up on ants and berries before heading south…

the other interesting thing about them is although they are woodpeckers, usually I see them on the ground, or in this case, on the garage roof…
