Birdie pics from this week
May 9^th, 2009 at 12:21pm

OK...two pic posts from me in one day. I swear I will try put down the camera! Grin

I heard lots of squawking this morning and this was what I found outside my window. We have three pair of geese on the lake. Two mating pair with babies and one immature pair that the other two pair let stick around as long as they don't get too close!

That's a Redbellied Woodpecker. Yes, they do like to make lots of noise pecking on the trees. They kinda sound like a mini jackhammer.

I modified my post to answer your question Carolyn. The Woodpecker is a Redbellied, not a Redheaded. Some days my brain doesn't work so well...... Tongue

Beth,

The pics are wonderful! PLEASE keep at it!

I love the Woodpecker and your little Hummingbird friend!

I have two Woodpeckers that hang around here in the winter. Their backs look the same as the one in your yard but their heads are gray. They have a red triangle on the back of their necks. They are so beautiful!

Thanks for sharing the beauty of your yard with us. If I lived at your house, I'd want to stay home all day!

Jeannie

Those are probably Downy Woodpeckers.

It is so nice this time of year, I don't want to go anywhere. I wish it would stay like this year round.
