Red headed woodpecker
drawn to the trees
seeking food and shelter
that God provides for thee
Providing beautiful color
magnetic in flight
pecking on the trees
in the morning sunlight
Always standing tall
on trees and fence posts
observing the world around
taking mental notes
My soul is refreshed
observing the life he leads
never worrying about life issues
or even his needs
God provides for us
there is no need to worry
living in abundance
without having to hurry
My soul is nourished
praying each day
trusting that God
will provide the way

Piper's Adventures 
I love woodpeckers. I think they are majestic and beautiful. However, my sister has wooden siding on her house. She is not very impressed to hear them drilling away at her siding looking for insects. She still likes the way they look as long as they are somewhere else.
Thanks for sharing. Woodpeckers will also peck on gutters and vinyl siding. I agree that it is better to watch them in a park away from people’s homes. Thanks for reading.
