Lots of Acorn Woodpecker photos.

I think they now have a fledged baby or two.

This male has blue eyes  - mature adults have red/pink eyes.

Blue eyed male with red-eyed female!

I like the size contrast here. It gives you an idea of just how BIG the Band-tailed Pigeons are.

And not to mention...

A young Hairy Woodpecker.

See the bit of red atop the head?

Probably a newly fledged female.

And lastly, a female Flicker.

It's been pouring buckets since Saturday night.

Amazingly this bird looks dry.

And bright-eyed.

Soft colors

Off to eat.

Still like this little brown bunny after all these years.

Look who is back!

 A Red-breasted Sapsucker.

I've not seen one in months.

And while I see Juncos every day, I think this photo of one in a dogwood is stunning.

Love the color composition..

A buck - but not Barry. He's four points on the left, 3 points on the right. 

Same guy as above during daylight hours.

Yet another guy - four points on both sides.
