Perry Hoffman got this great photo of a juvenile Acorn Woodpecker being fed.

There have been a lot of young woodpeckers chasing their parents to get fed. It can get pretty noisy out there as they have raucous calls. You can listen for yourself at this link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Acorn_Woodpecker/sounds

Thanks to Perry for allowing me to share his photo with you here. Perry's studio will be open this coming Labor Day weekend as part of the annual Studio Discovery Tour here on the Mendonoma Coast. Here is a link showing some of Perry's art and his address: https://www.studiodiscoverytour.com/perryhoffman20a

Heavy fog this morning has given way to brilliant sunshine!
