More Woodpeckers


One of the first blogs I ever posted, in April past, was of a large woodpecker on Primrose Street. It got lots of comments and people stopped me on the street for weeks afterword to tell me what type of bird it was.

Maybe it was fruitful and multiplied, because I have been watching two much smaller ones in the Flemish Beauty Pear tree in my backyard all week. Only the red-headed one is shown in these pictures; sometimes there is a very similar bird without the red head.

To find the previous post, use the word cloud at the right, find woodpecker (hint, look to the bottom of the list) and click on it to go to the post.

  1. Tough to tell for sure, but this one appears to either be a Downy woodpecker or a Hairy woodpecker.
