A Look At The Red-bellied Woodpecker
This winter we have had a red-bellied woodpecker that has been frequenting the tree in the backyard. It loves to hang out late in the day when the light is good which is always appreciated. When it first showed up I let it move around without opening the window. Then I slowly opened the window and let it sit. After a couple of times without spooking it by opening the window I was able to get me camera out the window to make some photos. At this point the bird does not care that I am there, and that is the best way to make photos.

Below are a few other photos that I have made of this bird this year. The goal from here on out is to try and show a little more behavior from this bird.
He’s so cute! Looks like a young one to me, but that’s just a guess.

I am bad at that. I never can tell age or sex on the birds.
I don’t really know, just an impression.
