What A Bird

A very sturdy looking bird, this Yellow-bellied Sapsucker was spotted close to Lake Ontario. I'll show you tomorrow exactly where he was.

HOW COOL! This is a wonderful photo, RedPat. And I'm very jealous as I have not seen a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker this year.

I just looked at it more closely. Hmmm. Is this a trick???? :)))

Oh my gosh what an incredible looking bird Pat, the colours and pattern of his feathers is quite fabulous! Beautifully shown here.

Looks like "sturdy bird" is attacking a smoke stack.

This is a beautiful photo, Pat, but I'm thinking you are trying to fool us ... upon closer inspection it looks too good to be true ... maybe made out of wood? :)

I'm with Lowell on this one... I'm not sure that's the real McCoy!

Lol, I have doubts too. Looks wooden rather than woody to me!

Nice colors and patterns. Though it does not look real.

I'm going with a very well done sculpture, you tricky lady, you!

No snow when I was in Columbus, fortunately, though it was pretty darned cold.
