In an old fruit tree in our backyard, close to the house, a woodpecker got busy this spring noisily making a home. My husband watched him regularly, and got a series of nice shots. He put his own captions to a series on Flickr, but with his permission I've seconded a few of the photographs and added my own captions - more fitting to an astrology blog. The photographs show a house of sorts, houses are part and parcel of astrology - so:
1st House. (The self)
"HI! THIS IS ME!"
2nd House (property, possessions)
"AND THIS IS MY HOUSE!"
3rd House (communication)
"HELLO Y'ALL! CAN YOU HEAR ME?"
4th House (home, mother/parent)
A MOTHER'S WORK IS NEVER DONE!
5th House (children, creativity)
"SQUAAAAAK.....FEED ME!"
6th House (hygiene, health)
"THE KIDS MAKE SUCH A MESS. TIME FOR A CLEAN-UP"
7th House (partnerships, relationships)
"WHERE'D YA GO, WENDY? - I'M WATIN' FOR YA."
8th House (sex, passion)
"DO I LOOK SEXY IN THIS?"
9th House (religion, travel)
"SHHH....THE PASTOR IS AT THE DOOR. I'M STAYING AWAY!"
10th House (work, career)
"IT'S HARD WORK HOUSE-BUILDING"
11th House (friends and wishes)
A FRIEND AT THE DOOR - "CAN I COME IN FOR A CHAT?"
12th House (seclusion)
"A BODY NEEDS TO GET AWAY FOM IT ALL SOMETIMES"

"Hello Y'all!" What part of Yorkshire do you hail from? ;-)
Your husband has a talent with the old Brownie box. (You'll have to explain that one to him). Excellent photographs.
Loved the idea I think he just decided to pose for the photos knowing what he had to do
RJ: Thank you - I shall pass on your remarks to himself. :-)

Hi Laura - You're right - that woodpecker saw an ideal opportunity for a photo op. He's something of a ham actor too, isn't he!?
Thanks for the kind words about the photography. The woodpeckers are showoffs and full of personality. Easy subjects.
This is a fun presentation of the series.
Himself.
