Pretty rare here too. They only nest near a sauna.

Ah, Dave. I should have known. We don't get those down south here.

Uncle, it's a Cedar Sapsucker...

And Slim. You should try working with squirrels. They can make a sound hole in a day and a half. Given enough peanut butter... Wood peckers are too noisy.

My first venture in building was bird houses, that got me into making ukuleles. Then box guitars, lap steels, violins, mandolins, cellos and violas. I'm going full circle. Back to bird houses..:^)

Pretty good, Slim.

Nice Dave, but I hope it's not a woodpecker, or you'll have nothing left of the timber in a couple of months time! :-D

Beautiful work, Dave! That is one nice soundhole!

Wonderful, Dave. I bet you were sweating this and saying the mantra, 'Don't Screw this up.'

Are you a birder? I was trying to name this guy and can not quite do it. Could be one of several species. Ought to be a song bird. Pleasing.
