Red Bellied Woodpecker

I enjoy feeding the birds all year round and we have the usual suspects on a daily basis, chickadees, nuthatches, tufted titmice as well as hairy and downy woodpeckers. A couple of weeks ago I spotted this guy, a red bellied woodpecker, whom I had never seen before. It took several tries but I finally got a picture. Birds at the feeder are hard to photograph because they move around so much!

Sorry!

Becca got the game Sorry Sliders for her birthday and we have been playing it alot. It is a new twist on the Sorry! we all played as kids. It has kind of a shuffleboard approach where you slide your pieces and try to knock other players off the board and there are four different ways to play. I highly recommend this game!

I love my cast iron skillet! Nothing beats a well seasoned cast iron skillet for cooking.
