Red-bellied Woodpecker

Red-bellied Woodpecker. Took this one this evening in my bird feeder. I like it because the background in the shadows creates a vivid image..

Yes, you have a very artistic, striking picture of the red-bellied. Yours is more artistic than one of my favorites, but I like mine also because it shows the red belly, which one doesn't often get to see, since woodpeckers are usually seen facing an object, which hides the red spot on the belly. Not to detract from your striking image, but I'll try to share mine with you as well.NOTE:Couldn't get it attached. If you're interested in seeing my photo of the red-bellied's red belly, I'll be happy to send one by email if I can get permission from Dave to get your email address.
