SHARING A PORT IN A STORM
Another uneasy truce made. Yesterday we had very heavy rains all day. This downy woodpecker and hairy woodpecker took refuge on this wooden feeding platform base. they stayed there for quite a while, through the heaviest parts of the downpour.

LOL a truce called, eh. Amazing what foul weather can do!!

A super picture this Bill - well spotted and so nicely taken too.
 
Suspect they had no other alternative, super shot of pair rendered friends by circumstance, Bill!! tfs.
 
I think they are each pretending that the other one isn't there! Great capture, Bill.
