On my walk today I saw a Chinese lady with a blue and green parrot on her shoulder drying laundry on a clothes line. She waved to me and I waved back. And on the tree in my back yard I heard a knocking and I knew it was a woodpecker. But it was not the red-headed woodpecker I am used to seeing. It was a black-headed one new to me. It is apparently a downy woodpecker. There are some in New York but this is the first time I noticed one. All the previous woodpeckers I have seen in trees near my house have had red heads.
