This blog is a plática, a conversation, in both Spanish and English about being a Boricua, a Puerto Rican, en la luna, or on the moon (or on its metaphorical facsimile: the United States). The phrase is the title of a poem by Juan Antonio Corretjer, which was made into a song by Roy Brown and updated by Puerto Rican Spanish-rock group Fiel a la Vega.

Woodpecker Central
We not only have a lot of deer and squirrels around here, we also have lots of woodpeckers. Today, my husband got a picture of the gorgeous red-headed woodpecker, which is very uncommon. S/he was eating out of the thistle feeder set up for the Goldfinches.
We also, as you know, have several Pileated woodpeckers that visit our suet cage. They scream, like monkeys in the jungle.
