Hungry Youngster

I had bought a new umbrella for our patio table recently, in anticipation of the hot summer weather to come.  Well the heat arrived today, and I put that umbrella to use while enjoying a fruit smoothie and a light breeze.  Then came the unmistakable  call/cry/peep/whine of a hungry baby bird.  Sure enough, I turned around and this Red-bellied Woodpecker was clinging to the big maple tree, waiting for mama.  They certainly are quite drab as fledglings.  Mama eventually showed up with a goodie from the feeder (extra).  
Thanks for stopping by and for your wonderful support of my journal.  I really appreciate your lovely comments.
