Look Who I Found

I guess winter must be approaching - it seems to be the only time I can find the woodpeckers. Found this red bellied woodpecker by the noise he was making - just had to circle the tree without him flying off.

Very pretty, great side lighting! Such great markings. That's an interesting observation, I only see them in the winter, too!!

Wonderful image of a woodpecker! I got a glimpse of a pileated woodpecker while at the state park on Saturday but not the chance to take his picture. Couldn't have used it in my project right now as he's far from brown. :)
