the picture of the bird is a woodpecker that visits regularly.
It is the size of a young chicken.
Very large for a woodpecker species.
The picture is kind of blury as they don't stay still when i want Look up "pileated woodpecker" online if you want better pictures.
The picture with the cats is next day.
They were still fussing over it some.
The last picture is from when they became bored. Hole made in box.
We don't have dried pork here.
Is it used to thicken soups?
Re-hydrated and used in stir fry?
I have the pillow out of its wrapper now.
The cats haven't noticed yet.
