Let's get away from the serious post of yesterday
and the heinous shooting at Fort Hood Army Base.
Let's take a look at nature.
Relax and enjoy the industrious Acorn Woodpecker.
The Acorn Woodpecker is preparing for winter.
He/she hammers holes in tree trunks, in this case, a telephone pole...
where the acorns are stored until needed.
Pretty ingenious use of man's addition to the environment.
