Rustic Roost

During my morning walk with Charlie, I came across another woodpecker. This one, a slightly scruffy-looking red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus), had chosen an intriguing perch—perfectly centered atop a weathered power pole.

"This image captures a red-bellied woodpecker perched atop a weathered wooden power pole. Its striking red cap and nape contrast beautifully with the black and white barred pattern of its back and wings. With its sharp beak and focused gaze, the woodpecker appears attentive, surveying its surroundings. The plain white background makes the bird and the pole stand out, highlighting the intricate details of its plumage." - Copilot

"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more."
Lord Byron
