I had an unusually successful day today with the local greater spotted woodpeckers. I first spotted this female as I parked the car at work this morning. It was her call that attracted my attention and I eventually located her high on one of the boundary trees.

Later on in the day I was out in the woods which is where I cam across one of the many rabbits. This one was resting in the hollow of an old tree stump.

The woodpecker also put in another appearance. It's the female again, and somewhere in these woods I am sure she has a hungry brood.

No sign at all of the fox cubs last night, though I have heard them this evening and had brief sightings of Shutterbug and (separately) Mama Vixen. I'll be checking the trail cam tomorrow to see what else has been going on.
