WOODPECKER IN RESIDENCE

I have been watching this redheaded woodpecker
for a couple of days now. I wonder if it is the same
one that made a nest last year in this old limb on
an oak tree outside my bedroom window. I have
counted a least six holes in the limb. I am surprised
it hasn't fallen off by now. This is not the best picture
but I hope you can see my woodpecker in residence
in the middle of the picture. Click on the picture to

I can see him too. I think he's beautiful! I hope he doesn't tear your tree down though.

Make that three of us who can see him.

We have a woodpecker around here that likes to peck at the utility pole in the front yard... poor bird!

Thank you all for your very nice comments. I know if he drills anymore holes the limb will fall off :).
