the gift

Sometimes when you have a heavy heart an unexpected gift shows up just at the right moment to lift your spirits.........



This little Downy Woodpecker showed up on the suet feeder outside our kitchen window this morning. Just what the spirit doctors ordered.

Wishing you a peaceful day.

  3. I saw a Hairy Woodpecky today when I was walking with Tucker. He was pecking furiously on a tree. Lifted my heart too. But a good laugh works too. You have written, 'just what the "spirt" doctors ordered" Ha!

  4. Gone to the dogs: leave to you to notice my typo! I've corrected it to read spirit doctor. Gave me a good laugh too.

  5. Okay, cousins, I saw a downy and a hairy today so I guess the same spiritlifter is working on all of us.

  6. Me thinks they're seeking us out. Does this mean we peck at things and make a lot of noise?!
