    Re: Woodpecker

    I'm no expert, but I'd say it's a Red Bellied Woodpecker?

    Nice shot though! It looks like your focal point might have been the edge of the feeder, his legs are kind of fuzzy.

    I like it!

    Cheers,

    Randy.

    Yellow Bellied Sapsucker, I think. At least that's what I've always thought when they show up in my yard.

    Hmmm. They don't come around much anymore - maybe I insulted them by calling them the wrong name?
