A Busy Woodpecker


I spotted this Red-Bellied Woodpecker a week ago when out for a walk in a park and struggled to get a pic of him since he never stayed still for long. This pic was in deep shadow but showed him the best as he stayed still with some yummy bit of food in his mouth.

  4. He's a beauty with his bright red head. And, it even looks like he's blushing a bit.

  10. Wonderful photo. I am always delighted when I see woodpeckers around here, but not so delighted when they pound on my house.
