The male downy woodpecker is in the top picture, easy to identify by the red on the back of his head. They are feasting on fresh suet I put out for yesterday's snowstorm. You can see the snow coming down and blowing in the background.

After living in Southern California for 20 years, I returned home to upstate New York to watch over my mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. My brother and I did everything we could to keep her in familiar surroundings at home and avoid assisted living. We were successful until June 2009, two weeks short of her 80th birthday. These Alzheimer's Moments document her life and the challenges of being a primary caregiver.
