As I walked through a little wood I heard a “tap, tap” sound. I looked up and saw a little flash of red. Can you see it? It was a woodpecker on a power pole. It was not on a tree. Woodpeckers damage power poles. Is it looking for an insect or does it want to make a loud noise? The weather today is wet. There is water running in the little stream. The water is not clear. The water in the little river is not clear either. We have had heavy rain. It washed mud from the banks. The river is a bit muddy.
