Had a nice Mother’s Day walk and saw this yellow-bellied sapsucker, along with lots of yellow warblers, a redstart, a Baltimore oriole, a red-bellied woodpecker, a gray catbird, a pair of sandhill cranes, and the usual other crew. 🪶

While driving today in rural Wisconsin, I noticed several cars pulled over and people looking up, some with cameras… I pulled over and got out and saw that there was a snowy owl on top of a telephone pole!! Wish I had had a better camera with me! (south of New Glarus , WI) 🪶
