Remember that spruce cone in the top part of the electricity pole I write a few days ago!? I watched that pole ever since! And guess what I have the answer! I know who put that cone there and WHY!!

Glad I watched that pole ever since… It was none other than…

Great spotted woodpecker (Dendrocopos major)!!!

Beautiful!

Isn’t he?

Do you like birdwatching!?

He certainly is beautiful. I can’t find such a bird near to our home. You’re lucky! Thanks for sharing it with us.
You don’t have woodpecker?!
We have them but not very close to home.
I see.. Put skin with fat and he will be there 🙂

Beautiful photos Ilze. Yes I so enjoy birdwatching and bird painting too 💜
Oh, I know! I love your birds!!!!! They are so beautiful!
I wonder why he did it though!
To get the seeds out! Every cone has seeds in it. He was hungry!
That’s funny
Why?
I never thought of pine cones as filled with seeds so it’s funny to me
Oh, i see. Yes, there are seeds. And small trees grow from them.
What gorgeous pictures. I pass a woodpecker each day on my way to work!
Say, hello, from me 🙂
