That’s Different

Teresa captured this photo of this male Downy Woodpecker while hiking earlier this week. Now that the weather is mild and temperatures on increasing we are seeing less of them. This one is not climbing a big tree.

Yellow Abs

Well, Yellow-bellied anyway. The Yellow-bellied Sapsucker is back. I shot a couple photos of him in a tree but this one is much better.

Woodpecker At Work

Wow, this time it was the male Pileated Woodpecker. If you recall, the last time we saw both the male and the female but the male took off before we could capture a photo of him. This time it was just the male. We are seeing them a lot this year.

It is great to see aRed-bellied Woodpecker. It is even better when a spring thaw is about to begin.
