It’s warming up but the yellow-bellied sapsucker is still hard at work. And my favorite bird name to say!

Had a wonderful morning with the local birding group exploring Ward lake. I have a lot of pictures to edit but this is my favorite, a Sapsucker Woodpecker in flight. #alaska #ketchikan #sapsucker #birding
