  3. The Red-bellied Woodpecker is such a striking bird, with its vivid red cap and unique markings. It's always a delight to spot them in the wild, especially when they are busy tapping away on trees. I shared a new post; you are invited to read.

  4. A real beautiful bird and I am so glad we have them here too. Once even in our garden.

  6. We have lots of woodpeckers here in our yard, and have even seen a Pileated from time to time. Great photo!

  7. How beautiful. I don't get to see these birds often here in Montreal...turkeys rarely as well, however I did see a turkey 😳 this morning on a college campus on my walk to my blood test. 🙃

  8. What a beautiful bird! I once had a woodpecker try to make a home in my stucco—definitely not beautiful. I’m glad you were able to spot this one in its natural glory!

  9. I also see these guys in CT and FL. Always seems odd to call them red-bellied when the conspicuous red is on the top of their heads and there is barely any red on their bellies. I think "red-headed" must have already been assigned. (Jack)
