Red-Headed Woodpecker

I usually see more Downy & Red-Bellied Woodpeckers but I went down to a nearby creek and found a lot Red-Heads over there. I didn't know til I googled it but the male & females look alike so this one could go either way!! :)

Those stripes on the bird are just so perfectly aligned! Simply beautiful bird, and a fantastic shot.

Terrific catchlight in the eye. I love these birds but we don't get them around here.

Awesome shot… I’m envious… I’ve only seen one of these flying by when I was driving… would love to photograph one.

They're more picky about where they nest than Downies & Red-bellies, at least from what I can tell in my neighborhood.

Beautiful capture of this beauty. It's cool how the wing colors align in this image. The red head is a show stopper.
