Today's critters offer a bit of humor to our humdrum lives... (I'm doing my best to ignore current events, sigh!)
I was thrilled to read another blogger had also seen a piliated woodpecker lately! They do take my breath away!
Last week I saw two (or maybe 3) piliated woodpeckers. And I saw one again in the distance yesterday!
Visitors to Stonehenge on the Winter Solstice 2025 were amused by the antics of this black cat!

Such a lovely post! You definitely have me smiling. I actually have a woodpecker in my latest post too! It's a Black-rumped Flameback.
ReplyDeleteCool...I love seeing the different species of birds in India!
DeleteThank you for a respite. Joy is pretty thin on the ground these days.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to share little bits of joy whenever I can. Some days just one joke in a cartoon form is keeping me breathing.
DeleteOur neighbour was quite pleased to get a woodpecker photo on the trial this week. I have no idea of the kind.
ReplyDeleteArtn't they fun to see!
DeleteMy hair definitely reminds me that I can't control everything!
ReplyDeleteYes, I often look that frazzled!
Delete...thanks Barbara smiles and chuckles are always welcomed.
ReplyDeleteI just get so tired of adulting...being serious all the time!
DeleteI love your sense of humor. I love your woodpeckers. I don't see them very often but I love it when I do.
ReplyDeleteThey are rare indeed here. I go years without seeing any.
DeleteNEVER leave a child unattended in a coffee shop LOL!
ReplyDeleteTee hee, there are some which just seem to take over the place, children I mean!
DeleteThanks for sharing humour, we all need a laugh and a smile to trudge through another day. Love the kitten and espresso sign. :)
ReplyDeleteI welcome all and sundry things to tickle my funny bone. I realized a while ago that tickling children to get them to howl with laughter might be considered abusive. I certainly wouldn't want to be tickled that way any more!
DeleteWhen I got up this morning I already felt dark and sad and determined I should take a day off the news and so forth.
ReplyDeleteThat lasted about ten minutes. Maybe less.
I was quite surprised to see my son and his wife appearing in a demonstration in their city! Wow! I'm impressed. This has reached a new level for me.
DeleteHello Barb,
ReplyDeleteI love all the cute critters and funnies! The Pileated Woodpeckers are one of my favorites too. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Glad that you host the meme of Saturday's critters, though I often have to rely upon internet images of animals rather than getting photos that I shoot myself.
DeleteI needed a good laughm Barbara--thanks for all the humor and fun!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed. We can all use a bit of humor. The world is in a terrible place. Tomorrow I'll get serious again.
DeleteThe red on the woodpecker is so vibrant it's enough to add much cheer to even the dreariest of days! Thank You for bringing a smile to my face, your post was a joy to read.
ReplyDeleteFun ones, Barb!
