I rediscovered a Rule of Birding this morning. Woodpeckers only find good pecking spots on the SHADY side of trees, OR the side opposite the birder. Or the tree which makes the birder face the sun directly . Well, at least with woodys here its pretty easy to narrow down. By the size and a glimpse it had to be a Downy or a Sapsucker. Thinking Sapsucker cuz I was getting an impression of yellowness when I first saw it. Yes, by the head markings I think it was not this gal- downy, right?. boy did I really need to do some good cropping and deleting in my bird pictures
