Woodpecker just flew into the screen house

I didn't want to panic him any more than he was so I just sat quietly and waited. He found his way out pretty quick.

I's tough seeing them panicked that way, and good to hear he got out safely.


I had a similar experience yesterday, with a baby bunny on my currently not so screened in back porch. I couldn't just sit there quietly, though, since my neighbor's cat was there...too.
@Piper you saved the baby bunny 🥹

@robingoodfellow I really, really hope so. He or she didn't appear to be injured, and did finally dart out the opened screen door and back to and under the back fence. Getting to that point didn't go well so well, though, and the little one was frantically trying to get out by jumping at places it could not get out of.

I had also at that point terrified my neighbor's cat, who I've grown very fond of. I was worried he would no longer seek refuge on my porch, or trust me.
I believe that's a flicker; probably a northern flicker, certainly in the same family and they act very similarly.

We have at least one that pecks holes in our trees and makes a racket before flying off.

Poor thing. This must have been so confusing to him. The air that is actually a wall.
