Male Downy Woodpecker
Here are some pictures of both a Red-bellied Woodpecker, and a tiny male Downy Woodpecker that were here on my street this last week. I saw that Red-bellied Woodpecker across the street in my neighbor’s tree and on their home (I shooed it away gently as it was drumming on the metal flashing of the eves).
The Downy Woodpecker was looking for insects on my Magnolia Tree. I love all of the woodpeckers and was just thrilled to see both of the birds here! Please click on the thumbnail image to see a slightly larger version of that picture. Enjoy!

Wonderful woodpeckers, they are one of my favorite species of birds. The Downy is so cute and the Redbellied is great too. Great shots, enjoy your day!
Hi Eileen, Many thanks, I certainly will! Same to you.
so naughty when they bang on roofs and siding and eaves!
Hi Theresa, Yes, unbridled, the woodies do have bad habits! They love the tinny sound of their drumming (especially so on metal). Have a fabulous day!
I like the woodies too, especially when they are drumming on things other than the house. They are all pretty though and fun to watch.
Hi Montucky, The woodpeckers are great fun! Have an excellent evening!
