A Red Headed Woodpecker and Cardinal eating together.

For the past 6 months I have been battling with stage 4 lung cancer. I am not able to do much due to lack of strength, so I pass the time by watching birds from the window near my hospital bed. I captured these two birds in the middle of chowing down on some bird seed.
