The New Woodpecker in the Neighborhood

There are lots of woodpeckers who visit us regularly--

The Red Bellied



The Hairy (such a sweet bird),

and his almost look alike, the Downy,

and, of course, the Pilated, who you can always find (or hear) early each morning hammering away in his favorite tree.

But this summer we were visited by the Red Headed Woodpecker.




He only stuck around for a couple of days.

I guess he was on his way to someplace else!

Great photos of your woodpecker friends! I was excited to see the red-headed woodpecker - I am always on the lookout for them!

Oh how I wish we had red-headed WPs... used to but they are gone now! Lucky you!
