Sony a6400, Sigma 150-600mm lens, f/6.3, 1/2000s, ISO-250, 600mm. This bird was incredibly far away; I couldn't really see what it was doing. I only saw the red head and started taking photos. This lens has amazing glass. The lens is very heavy, but without it, I would not have captured this beautiful bird. I was so glad I had it with me that day.
I happened upon a large field of half-burnt trees and discovered a redheaded woodpecker perched on one. They were and still are a rare sight for me. I was thrilled to have captured this one with an acorn in its beak. #RedWed #birds #RedheadedWoodpecker #Florida

A small charcoal gray bird sits facing away on a twig. He has a bright red head and a glimpse of red belly shows, too. There is a black line running from the back of his neck through his eye and to his short narrow beak.
Among wide green leaves, a black bird clings to a small branch. He has red on his rump and a medium, thick blue-gray beak. He has his head cocked toward the camera.
A glossy back bird sits in a green feeder and eyes the camera. His wing has a red patch rimmed with yellow.
A white bird with black wings and tail and a red head sits in some mulch. It is digging some seed from the much with a fairly long pale beak.

A red headed woodpecker on the side of a pine tree, clinging to the bark. It's head his solid red, with a black back and white chest. This was taken near Center Hill Dam between Cookeville and Nashville, Tennessee.
One of my favorite in-flight captures, this female mallard was coming in for a landing at the Murfree Springs wetlands behind the Discovery Center in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Her head is green, her body gray, and her wings have blue and white highlights at the back of the wings. The bokeh is green and yellow behind the duck, blurred due to the motion.
A male mallard swimming, with a drop of water just splashing up from the surface of Murfree Springs wetlands. The head of the duck is an iridescent green, the chest is brown, and the duck's beak is a tan-yellow.
This peacock was photographed near the front door of a chalet we stayed in near the Smoky Mountains National Park in the Cosby, Tennessee area. The peacock's head his deep blue, with green and blue patterns on his massive tail feathers, and the bird has gray and black coloration on its wings. We learned from the chalet rental folks that this bird has been flying from chalet to chalet in those hills for years, mooching from tourists before flying back to the farm when it lives to roost at night. It was quite a surprise for us to find when we were leaving the cabin after our stay.
Today's Bird of the Day theme is "tricolor", any bird with three or more colors.
A red headed woodpecker, a female mallard in flight, a male mallard, and a strutting peacock fit the bill.

A medium bird with a white belly and wingtip, black wing and tail, and a red sits on some mulch. It tilts its head up. There are dainty leaves in the top right corner.
My #WoodpeckerWednesday also doubles with #RedWed. At my Pennsylvania house, I had many varieties of woodpeckers visit, but this one was the least frequent. #RedHeadedWoodpecker #ColorADay #birds #WildlifePhotography #EastCoastKin
Woodpecker on a tree trunk. It is on the left side of the trunk with it back toward the camera. The head is slightly in profile and we can see an eye and the beak. Back and tail are black, with some white at the ends of the wings. The head is a deep red color. We see a bit of belly, which is white. The beak is long and pointy, and looks gray. The background is blurry branches and white sky.

I heard one earlier today, but so far haven't seen a redheaded woodpecker at our suet feeders this year. I'm always stunned when one makes an appearance!

Who doesn't love the #RedHeadedWoodpecker! The vibrancy and contrasting red-white-black make it quite a sight to behold.

I feel so lucky that we got to watch this one transform into a full, brilliantly plumed adult. This is my last photo, as it prepared to head north. Taken on May 7th 2025 #redheadedwoodpecker

Sometimes we think we see the whole picture….. but if we just slow down and really look at something…..we may see more detail than we realized was there at first look….
