A nesting pair of majestic, crow-sized Pileated woodpeckers, with their fire-red blazing tufts, are in our backyard and at the suet feeders on our deck daily. I have never seen them so close. Together with the Eastern bluebirds, which are successfully raising their first of the summer batch of fledglings in our side yard, they make for an extraordinary spring. An abundance of flowers, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, Goldfinch, song and Carolina sparrows, cardinals, house, winter, and Carolina wrens, indigo buntings and warblers of various sorts, combine with warm breezes to give us a hint of the glory that awaits us for all eternity when we, having been baptized with song, will forever free-form dance in the tenacious tender affectionate embrace of Abba’s Love.
