🎉🎉🎉 Woohoo! I believe this is the first time I've captured a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in flight! Spotted on this cold Spring morning in Central Park. 💛❤️💛 #Sapsucker #CentralPark #birdsseenin2026
A Yellow-bellied Sapsucker is clinging to the side of a tree trunk. The bird has a red patch on its forehead and throat, a black-and-white patterned head and body, and a pale yellow belly. It’s positioned vertically on the bark, using its claws to hold on.
From @alan678.bsky.social today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #tricolour , birds with three colours or more. The alt is #YearRound birds you see all year round.

We were getting into the car to go do some #birding and I heard a ping-ping-ping on our metal street light...and there was a Red Breasted Sapsucker looking for attention!

Cold weather got all the tree sap flowing. Lots of Yellow-bellied Sapsucker activity this morning #birds #birding #bird #birdphotography #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #sapsucker #woodpecker
Thank you, Alan, you are kind 🙏 But then, the birds are glorious.
Here is a Yellow-bellied #Sapsucker for the #red theme :)

The yellow-bellied sapsucker is happy that things are warming up a bit. I wonder if the sap they love so much has started to flow again?

It’s warming up but the yellow-bellied sapsucker is still hard at work. And my favorite bird name to say!

A different angle on the Red Breasted Sapsucker on Sauvie Island last week. Note the rows of feeding holes it made on previous visits to its favorite tree.

I've seen this sapsucker defending his sapwells from the likes of both nuthatches, titmice, Ruby-crowned Kinglet & an Orange-crowned Warbler. Precious commodity #birds #birding #bird #birdphotography #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #sapsucker

A sapsucker perched on a branch of my backyard redbud, facing me such that its yellowish belly shows, as well as a bright red cap on its head
A sapsucker on a suet feeder, so that its back is to me, which shows off its beautiful plumage - a golden brown with two vertical stripes of black with flecks of white.
I'm thrilled to have this Yellow-bellied Sapsucker frequenting my feeders over the past two days. I can't help but think it is the same bird that spent last winter in my backyard. It ignores the migration memo! #birds #birding #Bobsbackyard #Ancaster #HamOnt #woodpecker #sapsucker
I heard this Yellow-Bellied #Sapsucker meowing as I was walking to the lake. Shot against a bright sky, so I had to raise the shadows quite a bit

When I walked through Central Park's Loch on this frigid morning, I thought I heard a little kitten mewing. It turned out to be this gorgeous Yellow-bellied Sapsucker! I had never heard one before. ❤️💛🖤 #Sapsucker #CentralPark #birding
