The tweets are back, and the woodpecker pecks

A woodpecker has been pecking on the beams on the outside of my office wall. He’s driving le crazy and making huge holes in the beautiful facade of our house.
To add to the woodpecking noise, the red tailed birds have come back for the sixth or seventh year running and built their nest on the beams above our terrace. The chicks are very hungry and tweet endlessly as the parents go back and forth collecting food.
