"The Sociable" Acorn Woodpecker

I would have been excited to get a photo of one of these! I's gone to take pictures of bees on the rosemary bushes when I heard them on the roof just above. Mother and two juveniles and they stayed there a long while.

Excited? You bet!
How wonderful! These are beautiful birds; I can imagine how exciting it must have been to get to watch them! Fav!

@boxplayer I had to look up the types that reside around here, and there they were! That name is new to me as well! Thanks Isla!

@pixiemac I was photographing the bees on flowers at the corner of this single-level building, heard them and looked up! You have your wonderful Kingfishers! I've had nothing this pretty!

Their red heads reminds me of the Zucchetto hats that some clerics wear. Beautiful shot of the amazing social time of these birds.
