~The Mad Woodpecker~ :-)

That one isnt it :-)
I got a great video, sent to me yesterday of a
super mad woodpecker.. Not exactly like the
ones I see but I wish you could see this video..
Its on you tube... When I saw my woodpecker
outside this morning, as you see, I DID get a
nice photo of him.. Only took 3 tries and a few
choice words and I finally got a snapshot :-) !
But it reminded me of the woodpecker on that
video.. Some birdwatchers spotted him just
hammering away at this hole.. I figgured he was
making a new one as there was one just below
it.. :-) Wrong!


After watching this mad as could be woodpecker,
well, he was hitting that so hard he would almost
bounce up in the air.!. It was amazing.!. When all
of a sudden theres a HUGE GREEN SNAKE ! It
jumps out of that hole, grabs that bird and you
can hear the guy in the boat saying "DONT move
the boat".. He said what kind of snake but I was
so amazed at watching that snake and the bird,
I wasn't paying close attention...The fight was ON!

The snake grabbed that bird by the neck, and
the bird kept hammering away at the snake..
The snake would let go, the bird would fly to
another spot to keep pecking away at the snake!
They fought for quite awhile.. It was really
amazing to watch that.. Look for it on you tube..
Its worth the watch.. Only bad thing is.. it didn't
show who won.. I think that snake gave up.. unless
it killed that bird, the bird would not give up,
I don't think.. I kinda thought it might have been
the woodies nest.. I hope it wasn't and that snake
ate his babies.. well HER babies.. Hmmmmm.. that
would explain the fierceness of that bird and its
determination to get that snake no matter what!]
Its a great video.. watch it if you can... :-)

I have not one thing planned for today other than
to find out when the super bowl is on.. I dunno
what time, I'll look online.. I lived in Indiana for
many years, Elkhart, so I have to back the Colts.
If theyre in the super bowl they must be pretty
good.. I always have been a Packer Backer, they
are my team.. I was hoping they would go to the
super bowl.. but everyone has to have a go at it.
The colors of the saints is almost the same as
my school colors, gold and black...good combination.
One team has awful colors that I don't even like
to watch them at all.. I think the Browns.. The
orange and brown colors.. not my colors.. Packers
are green and yellow.. good combination... :-)
Anyway.......

I'm gonna close this for today and look up the
time and station.. Sposta be some pretty neat
commercials during the game.. Myself, I don't
think ANY commercial is good but I will admit
some are funny... :-) A good laugh is always good
for you.. that's why I think one of my favorite
TV shows is Americas funniest home video show..
I really enjoy that one :-)

Post time and for this GORGEOUS WEEBLE to
get some lunch...But remember.. "I shall return!"

Always, Lois ****


God Bless You, is my prayer today,
I'm so honored to call you "friend".
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...

    Hello Lois

    Can you give us your Ingredients for the hawaiian sweet bread??? I will try to make it...I see some have pineapple juice them them...
    How much snow do you have???
    They say 2 to 4 inches Monday for us, but it's a little warm here so I don't think it will last long.
    God bless you Lois,
    Mary
