The Last Bird Stitch of the Series


Here it is!
The 12th and final bird in the Little Stitcher's Bird Calendar Series
December's bird is perfect for the holidays - a European Bullfinch. 

I haven't blogged about woodpeckers lately, so here we go.

I've had a couple of little Downy Woodpeckers at the front feeders.

A female...

...and a male.

I'm not seeing the larger Hairy Woodpeckers regularly.

It's been a couple of weeks since I've seen any.

I did see a Red-breasted Sapsucker in mid-November.

Very usually, the bird let me approach and click off a couple of nice photos.

I'm hearing multiple Acorn Woodpeckers, 

...but am only seeing this one male at the feeders.

The Flickers are hanging out nearby...

....in the trees...

...rather than at the feeders.
