Lindsay, thank you so much for your kinds words. You have had quite a winter in Boston!!! Except for this year winter in Boston is much milder than here. I lived in Boston for 20+ years and have been in the Upper Valley for 5 – although I visited often. I’m so glad I can keep the beauty of the upper valley near you through the blog. Spring will come soon for you!
Very best, Catherine
Great shot!
Beautiful capture!
What a beauty… 🙂
wow, awesome shot! I’ve never seen a pileated before
liked a lot!
what in god’s name is THAT? I can’t make it out.
hey! it’s a pileated woodpecker with a crabapple in its beak
Great capture, Seedbud. A beautiful bird
Nice shot – though it makes me cold looking at it.
My hunger is for spring too
I saw one of these here in PA on Feb. 26th! I unfortunately didn’t get a photo, it was too quik to fly away.
Great shot
Your photos are such a gift. I start my day opening your image and taking in the beauty and your words.
My deep thanks for your daily offering. It’s great!
