Dogs and Woodpeckers

It’s time for Saturday Critters, and I'm starting with a picture of Charlie that I filtered for the pet art blog hop. Yes, he needs a nail trim, and one is scheduled for this coming week.


I like dogs and I often take pictures of dogs that I see.

A fine sheepdog was at Seven Bends State Park today, patiently listening to a talk on woodpeckers.





This was my first visit to the park since the snowfall and cold spell. There was a food drive for charity, and I brought a couple of items to drop off.


The North Fork. Sharing with Water H2O

Returning to the topic of woodpeckers, a downey woodpecker has been enjoying a seed bell.  




I’ll leave you with one more picture of Charlie

  4. Lovely pics, all of them. The top one of Charlie is lovely - so colourful. The last one is also cute, but Charlie looks rather wistful. Is it because of the cold weather, Charlie?

  5. It's fun seeing how water freezes on different rivers & lakes. That is if the weather is right for photographers!

  6. Hello Linda :)
    Beautiful woodpecker photos, and all the dogs are lovely, Sheepdogs are one of my favourite breeds and when I was a young girl I used to go for walks with our neighbours sheepdog, but Charlie is always the star, although he looks little sad in the last photo.
