Bib has been scampering busily about the yard all day — leaping after ladybugs, terrorizing the falling leaves, pouncing on acorns. In search of a new game, she decides to investigate a strange rata-tat sound down by the creek.

As she approaches the fence, a sharp peek peek greets her ears. Glancing up, Bib sees two strange critters perched on a post — one hammering furiously at the wood, the other warning her away.

She jumps undaunted to the railing and both birds glare at her. Cocking her head, Bib wonders what these folks are about. Why, in heaven's name, are they pounding their bills at hard old wood?

The woodpecker pair, rather miffed at having their search for luncheon brought to a standstill, ruffle their feathers at this cheeky youngster. She might just as well be on her way — they're not planning to share their bonanza find of
juicy ants with bey!

Plate Four in Nosy Neighbors by artist Persis Clayton Weirs brings you a charming standoff between furred and feathered neighbors who don't quite understand each other's peculiar ways, but are perpetually curious to find out just a little bit more.

The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the U.S., a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully recreate the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was made in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the U.S.
