This is a red headed woodpecker. I have one that comes to my feeder. Unlike the other poster on this board, my woodpecker is very skittish, constantly looking around to see if there are predators, although it did dive bomb a squirrel that was at the feeder, but the squirrel stood its ground and did not budge!

THIS is the type woodpecker that inhabits my home area. Now I know what it is called. They are quite aggressive and unafraid of even the BlueJays. BlueJays don't even mess with them. lol
