Mastodawn

I still haven't got a photo of a Great Spotted Woodpecker that I'm truly happy with. They're always so high up in the trees.

This is probably my best attempt.

But hopefully tomorrow morning will bring more opportunities.

Wish me luck!!

Red-bellied Woodpecker

Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major)...the red patch on the back of the neck identifies this bird as a male...Europe and Northern Asia. #birds #nature #birdsofmastodon #photo #wildlife #woodpecker

Acorn Woodpecker is surprised - vexed, even! - that you didn’t know about their polygynandrous breeding collectives, wherein several adult males and several adult females collectively share the work of raising the young. This particular A.W. P.B.C. is inside a telephone pole. #AcornWoodpecker #Woodpecker #Polygynandry #photography #birds #birders #BirdWatching #BirdWatchers #California #LosAngeles #BirdPhoto #GriffithPark #DailyBird #BirdsOfPixelfed #BirdADay #DailyBird #BirdOfTheDay #LARiver #LosAngelesRiver #BirdsOfMastodon #cute #NaturePhotos #LAWildlife #Polygamy #Polygynandry

Red-bellied Woodpecker

Similar but different from the red-headed woodpecker (whose head is all red).
