These were all taken within a space of about 10 minutes at lunch time today
This is a female downy woodpecker
I'm guessing this is her hubby
This is a red bellied woodpecker.....this guy is very shy & the most difficult to get pictures of....he always goes to the other side of the suet so I can't get a full shot of him.
There were several cardinals around
All this needs is some snow on the branches
Then the "guest of honor" showed up.....a pileated woodpecker
He hung about on the tree for a while
Then when he "dove" in for lunch went to the other side of the feeder.......I think they are the coolest of the woodpecker family!
