17 Feb/17

I've been monitoring the Woodpecker hole I saw on the 13th., and there has been no change. I guess the bird was only exploring. The tree is pretty healthy looking (an aspen), so maybe there were no pickings.

Warming up this week - above 0 C for most of the week. I saw a hairy woodpecker across the street as I was opening some drains for puddles. Sounded like a robin. There was a lady beetle crawling up the bathroom window today. With the warmer weather and the longer daylengh they are going to start coming out of diapause, though there is still a lot of winter to go!
