At Cottontail Acres: the red-naped sapsucker was back again yesterday evening. It appears to hang out with one of the Nuttall's woodpeckers.

My very first red-naped sapsucker. Found in Rocky Mountain National Park in July.

I've probably posted too many sapsucker pics, but here's another one. They're just so darn photogenic #birds #birding #birdphotography #sapsuckers
Still feels like winter, but these romantically-involved Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers reminded me that spring is just around the corner! ๐๐๐ #Sapsuckers #CentralPark #birding
A sapsucker perched on my birch log suet feeder, looking to the right towards the suet. His head is tipped back and the tip of his tongue is out. He has a red cap, a yellowish-white belly, and yellowish-white, black, and white patterns on his face, back and wings.

I'm pretty sure this is a yellow bellied sapsucker. If so, we've seen it before.
