Great pic of the woodpecker! A life lister? I've sure never seen one. And we read that Theodore Roosevelt story with great interest. He was a rare one.
A close encounter with a beautiful grouse and then the foggy view of the mystical black-backed, what an outing! Makes soaked pants and a hiking redo worthwhile.
Lewis, you got that right! Sometimes I question myself and what I'm doing out there. But then an experience like this clears my head and brings it all back into focus! Thanks for reading and responding.

Yes, I've never seen one before!
Congratulations Silas! What an interesting read- I knew nothing about that midnight ride!
I didn't either, until I started looking into it. Thank you for reading!
Great photos. And a great history lesson; never knew that dramatic story of Theodore Roosevelt becoming president.
I didn't know the history either. But it was a fascinating read.

Congratulations on your great sightings! Sounds like a wonderful time!
Thanks a lot John. It was a great place to visit and my first black-backed woodpecker!
