How much wood can a WOODPECKER peck?

I showed a house the other day that had a TAP TAP TAP going on insdie the house. I went upstairs to face the tapper and realized oit was outside on the side of the house. I rapped on the walls back and it stopped. I went out to check and here is what I saw:

Willard

Ah--Willard is getting pretty old in cat years! Almost 17 and he has taken up residence in our kitchen sink. After over 5 years of kidney failure and advancing age, we are thinking he has used up his 9 lives--and we have helped him make the most of them, too.
He's such a character!

Real Estate

It IS a great time to BUY--and spring is upon us. Prices have been coming down and inventory is gradually going up. Ever so slowly.
