Mystery Solved

A Mystery solved?


At the almost back of the barn --
(Now getting down to the last things in the Barn Cleanage Operation of the Century)
I have three irregular polygon windows --

— high quality triple-glazed special-ordered windows from Canada.
When delivered, I measured them with a heat lamp from the hardware store
and found the company had shipped windows with the wrong Low-E coating
[A selective Low-E coating rather than a non-selective Low-E coating].

So, the company, Loewen, sent their boys to deliver replacements, at no charge,
and changed out the glass in the sliding doors as well.  They left the odd-shaped polygon windows.

And they did this in the middle of a very cold December!  Before the home had insulation!

So, we moved these windows from the Pyramid to the Pentagon's barn ...
(Smart)
... to be used sometime for something ...
And now the something I’ve decided, is back at the Pyramid!
(Well, maybe not so smart).

But I wondered ...

Why was some of the inside wood frame extensions all destroyed –
it looks like a wood pecker, a big one, had been busy on them!
But why would a woodpecker go after some nice clear fir?

And today I noticed the the mud-dobber nests on the window frames ...
Hmm, I guess, perhaps, maybe? woodpeckers like mud-dobbers!
