13 mar/17

Interesting day today (cold, -20). As I got into the bush I heard woodpeckers, chickadees and crows. At the end of the walk I came across this Downy woodpecker, bashing away at what looked like a willow (apologies for the lousy images of this bird and the magpie). Not sure what it was after, but It knew. Yesterday I finally got a shot of the magpie that's been around all winter. Again, lousy shot, but one of the few magpies I've seen in Winnipeg.
