Hairy Woodpecker...


Here is one of the guys that visit the suet feeder; both the downy and hairy woodpeckers visit.

Great photo. I love how you were able to capture the red on his head and the detail in his tail feathers.

Great pose on the Downy John. I've been 'seeing' a lot of Maine recently. My wife and I are big Stephen King fans , and 99% of his books and movies are centered there as I'm sure you're well aware.
Hopefully one of these days we can actually visit !

I so envy the clarity of your bird photos. Mine look like they were taken with a polaroid.

PS- Do you get pileated, too? I heard one laughing in the tree today--just like Woody Woodpecker.
