Is it a bird or plane?

I had a job interview last week. One of the questions asked of me was: "If you were to describe yourself as a bird, would it be a woodpecker or hummingbird, and WHY?

I loved the question. I have no idea which was the "right" answer, but I picked "woodpecker, as I said that woodpeckers are persistent. That they keep pecking at the tree until they get the job done. Was that a good answer or bad? I have another interview tomorrow. Can't wait to hear what I'm asked there!

Right before I was laid off I made a trip to Los Angeles. Glad I did that before my income dropped. Here are a some photos. Had a great time visiting my son and his wife. Hiking, beachcombing, walking the Venice canals every day, watching surfers and talking to fisherman on the Venice pier. Plus an art show opening and receiving a bottle of sake as a gift.

This chicken was just strutting across someone's yard in Venice.

Venice Canals. I liked how the birds were all lined up.
