A Red-bellied Woodpecker

It didn’t take long for this Red-bellied Woodpecker to come and check out My New Bird Photography Setup.

The Red-bellied Woodpecker is the boss at my feeders.

I just discovered red bellied woodpeckers when we moved to So. Maryland last summer. A pair visit our suet and woodpecker feeder daily now, along with the Downey / nuthatch /sapsucker / … I’ve seen one pair of Pileated woodpeckers locally, just not in my yard.

As always – great photos Steve

Super photos – love that “the Boss” seems to be giving her approval!
