Got a Downy Woodpecker and a Red-shafted Flicker on the suet blocks at the same time, quite uncommon in my yard (northeastern Oregon). That the flicker had its back to me made this pic possible. I swear flickers are the wariest birds out there-- they hate it when anyone even looks at them! 🪶

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The city has been completely left without electricity, hot water, and heating for over one million people, including all critical infrastructure.
