March 9, 2007 - Hairy Woodpecker

Supposed to be partly cloudy today with highs getting up into the upper 50's. I shot this one the other day, and realized afterward that it was too big to be the downy woodpecker. So I got my bird book out and realized that since he made two of the downy, that he must be the hairy woodpecker. He really likes the berry suet.

Wonderful capture with a terrific perch and a beautiful background! I think this little lady is a downy! Janet

A very nice shot, I found the Hairys harder to get close to than the Downys.

I do not recall reading about this woodpecker. Looks like he's got his eys closed. Must have been taking a nap.

Great composition and a beautiful bokeh Rich. It really does look a great deal like the Downy doesn't it?
