The past is rich in lessons from which we would greatly profit except that the present is always so full of Special Circumstances.

Ladder-backed woodpecker

This morning, my ash-throated flycatcher was back. It was evidently looking for a fight, as it repeatedly attacked its reflection in a window. As I was watching it, a woodpecker flew up and did its rat-a-tat on the wooden wall below the flycatcher's window. I believe it must have been a ladder-backed woodpecker.
