Our new morning alarm...

It's finally Sunday, and it's been a long week for Eric and me! We were looking forward to a quiet Sunday morning, lingering in our jammies, sipping tea and coffee...but oh, no...we have a little, rather BIG fellow creating his own beat of a drum. Take a look....

See him? He looked like he was about 18" long with that red hat on top. He was just banging away at the tree, looking back and forth for creatures that would pop out with all the vibration he was generating.  There have been several family members in the trees lately...
Now if only they could get together and play percussion...with a beat.
