This Downy Woodpecker (f) was busy excavating a hole the tree along side a busy walking path and didn't seem to mind the attention from passersby.
Canatara Park, Sarnia, ON
This Downy Woodpecker was hammering away with it's pointed bill, making a hole in this tree. A closer look at the head shows the eye covered by the nictitating membrane. The translucent nictitating membrane helps to moisten the eye as well as offer protection.

"Roving Reporter Rich Border here, STOP TYPING, I'M BROADCASTING! This reporter has just discovered that Cormornant Construction has filed for Chapter Eleven bankruptcy and will cease construction immediately on what would have been a third bridge over the Tacoma Narrows, to my horror I witnessed many of the employees dive off of the unfinished structure into the cold deep waters below upon receiving the news.
Flybynight construction has stated that it will pick up where their failed competitor left off but only if the state comes up with a large deposit first, nothing from Olympia on that. In the meantime, WISDOT has stated that without the competition of the third bridge they will be raising the toll on the Gig Harbor side and adding a new one for those attempting to leave Tacoma. We now return you to Heidi, already in progress..."

PS - to all of my good Flickr friends, please be patient with me as I post all of these gosh-darn birds! I'm still enjoying the new lens…but when spring finally blooms I'll move on to something else:)
Le quotidien d'un chantier, c'est parfois aussi simple que ça...
Pourtant, derrière l'apparente simplicité de ce remplissage se cache la complexité du métier.
Un peu comme la photo, tout compte fait.
The watermill Lippholthausen (Schloßmühle Lippholthausen) in the Lippholthausen district of Lünen is a grain mill built in 1760 near the river Lippe. The watermill of the former Buddenburg noble house is a late Baroque half-timbered building, not far from the former Buddenburg Castle.
From the 14th century until 1902, the Buddenburg house was owned by the Frydag family of Buddenburg. The Frydags belong to the very old Westphalian nobles. The family is mentioned for the first time in 1198.
Around 1535, the noble family built a watermill south of Brunnenstraße and opposite Schlossallee. At the former river Henebecke a large millpond was excavated.
Afterwards, the runs of the creek Henebecke, Sadbecke, Wilbecke and Seltenbecke were diverted so that they flowed directly into the new millpond and fed it with water.
After the mill had been completed and put into operation, the farmers in the area of the thirlage "Buddenburg Mahlzwang" had to come to the castle mill to have their grain ground.
Nothing remains of the mill built at the beginning of the 16th century. However, the current mill building already has a considerable number of years on the hump: It was built in 1760 by Wessel Giesbert von Frydag.
In 1903, Haus Buddenburg and the mill were inherited by the Rüxleben family. The latter finally sold the property to the city of Lünen in 1913. Until 1930 grain was ground in the castle mill.
The old mill pond above the castle mill is no longer present, it was filled in 1938 during the construction of the Lippewerk. A loss for trippers, they could sail around on the pond with paddle boats.
Until the end of the 1970s, the House of Buddenburg, which also included the castle mill, stood in the district of Lippholthausen, now part of Lünen.
The Mühlenfreunde Lippholthausen e. V. restored and maintains the mill, which currently serves as an excursion restaurant and can also be used for weddings. It was placed under monument protection in 1985.
