Red-headed Woodpecker

[ramapo]

8. Great shots

I'm constantly amazed at the variety of birds you find. I hear woodpeckers all around but they are quite stealthy. The red-wing blackbirds used to be very common around here (North Jersey) but I don't see them as often. I had feeders out for years until a few years ago when every so often a bear would amble by and destroy the feeder so that cut down on the bird visits to my yard. They do seem to like the beans and tomatoes in the garden but I can't catch them in the act. I might give the feeders another try come the cold weather. In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy the birds through your work.
