Unpredictable Winds

The forecast was for rain this afternoon, but that was thwarted by a brisk wind.  The afternoon sky had rolling clouds with mostly sunshine.  It would have been a perfect day except for the biting winds.

The forest surrounding the service road provided shelter from the wind.  A fly took refuge there.

A female Downey Woodpecker wasn't effected by the wind either.

A male was nearby, but he took cover in the brush below.

Hope you enjoyed!
