Woody Woodpecker~

Loves grape jelly! (tap/click to enlarge)

He is curious,

about the human who puts jelly in palm trees.

The jelly is for orioles.

But forget acorns,

Acorn Woodpeckers,

want jelly,

in their belly!

Cheers to you from The Holler Woody~

    1. Turns out blue-jays, grosbeaks, mocking birds, orioles, woodpeckers and myriads of other birdies love grape jelly too. I now have a Jelly Tree with so many species feasting at a time, it is incredible. I learn daily too, from the birdies! Cheers to you Marlene დ

  1. They sure can make some noise hammering away from 3 AM to 5:30 AM robbing you of those last precious hours of sleep before having to get up for work. They’re no friends of mine.

  2. He is so beautiful! We have a Red Headed Woodpecker in our neighborhood. He was in our front tree, right outside our window, on Sunday. He was a delight to watch!

  4. Your close-ups of this gorgeous woodpecker are wonderful, Cindy. How funny that they also enjoy the jelly you hid for the orioles. I have also learned that there are many birds with a sweet tooth (beak). 😊

  5. That brilliant red crest! It’s unmistakable. Your photos capture their remarkable look and personality.

    I’m always surprised to see how big woodpeckers are. For some reason, I tend to think they’re these little wee birds.
