If you don't feel like seeing a lot of pictures of the
Red Bellied Woodpecker,
Red Bellied Woodpecker,
this would be a good time to make your exit.
He was just so darn cute and so willing to pose for pictures,
it was impossible to pick just one or two to share with you bird lovers.
They do have a splash of red on their bellies.
Stage right...
Stage left...
Here he is waiting patiently for Mr. Squirrel to finish up.
He came all afternoon on May 24th and made his presence know.
I took so many pictures, that by days end,
I didn't even get up as he sat by the window.
Do they have tongues?? I think I see his tongue.
I didn't even get up as he sat by the window.
Sharing today with
too cute. i love their 'pluck'. :)
ReplyDeleteHe is so cute. And beautiful. Your shots are great. I would have taken as many as he would allow.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little guy with his bright red head.
ReplyDeleteOh he is cute - but they create havoc on wood. We have this huge woodpecker - red head and big black belly and he is eating our deck. We went out to get some owl statues. lol sandie
ReplyDeleteVery goodlooking indeed specially with the red head and loved every shot you took.Thanks for sharing.Have a great day!

He is adorable! I love the ones where he is sitting on the deck.
ReplyDeleteI love him!!! My experience with woodpeckers of any kind is that they are so shy, I can't believe you got so many wonderful pictures of this beauty!!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. I would have taken pictures too. I love his color.
ReplyDeleteOh too cute. What great shots Debbie!
ReplyDeleteBrilliantly taken - couldnt you just spend hours sat watching stuff like this....
ReplyDeleteStunning DOF - such clear shots of this beautiful bird!
ReplyDeleteThose are great! I love seeing the Red Bellied Woodpecker. I always thought it was a misnomer until you pointed out that there is a bit of red on their bellies.
ReplyDeleteOh he is so precious. I love how it looks like he is sitting on his tummy. Enjoy your day. Bonnie
ReplyDeleteFantastic when they hang around long enough for so many great shots.
ReplyDeleteSo cute, what beautiful coloring. Personality too! Great photos Debbie!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful birdie, fantastic photographs. I am greeting
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing each of these wonderful images. I would not have wanted to miss a single one.
ReplyDeleteHe's gorgeous! LOVE these - but he should be called the red-headed woodpecker...just sayin.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos - I wish a bird that cute would pose so beautifully for me!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh...he is just so darn cute...great pictures!!
ReplyDeleteI never get bored of looking at your bird pictures.
ReplyDeleteHe is certainly a lovely looking bird.

ReplyDeleteThese are the best woodpecker pics I have EVER seen!!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie...to answer the question of the day ..does a woodpecker have a tongue...In fact they do.. and this one has one 3 times the length of its beak and can wrap it around it's skull when retracted.."how's about that", but "why would it want to do that"??? A question for another day me thinks ; } lol
ReplyDeleteGreat photos.. I have not seen one here yet although they say we have
them here in summer..who they are I have no idea..: }}
I enjoyed these ..bring on all you want!!
Enough bugging you for today!
Grace
PS thanks goes to Google for that answer..you didn't think I knew
all that did you??? ; }
Hi Debbie, wonderful shots of the Redbellied woodie. I would have done the same take all the photos I could take. He was posing nicely for you too. Have a great evening.
ReplyDeleteI don't even want to talk to anybody who doesn't want to see pictures of this adorable bird! We had one as an "alarm clock" for a couple of months this spring; I loved it. My pictures never did actually show the red belly, so you did great!
ReplyDeleteYours are the best! You captured the expression and detail beautifully.
ReplyDeleteNow he is a looker and a poser....Your shots are wonderful and you caught him in all his glory.....
ReplyDeleteYou always get such good photos.
ReplyDeleteHow in the world do you manage to capture such amazing shots? Those are magnificent!
ReplyDeleteIt really is so cute ! I can tell you had a great time watching and the bird had a great time posing for you !
ReplyDeleteAligaga
There is nothing like a cooperative subject is there? You really got some fantastic shots!
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic, Debbie! Better than any shots I got of the Red-bellied Woodpecker that visited over the winter. Were you using the new lens?
ReplyDeleteYou got wonderful pictures of this cute little guy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my barn post.
He is just too cute!! LOL...it wasn't that many pictures:)
ReplyDeleteYou can never have to many photos of cute red-bellied woodpeckers.. especially ones as terrific as yours, Debbie.
ReplyDeletenote, I'm native clamdigger born and raised in Point Pleasant. We had a Gulf station on rt88 and Bridge ave- moved to Florida in 1985. Love all the places you roam :)
Oh what a fun post. I see the red belly! I get it's name now :) I had put out new seed and I had one of these guys come visit me. Then the next morning I woke up to a coyote, so no more of that food :(
ReplyDeleteWell I enjoyed each and every photo & wouldn't have looked away! They're a low-rider when sitting!!
ReplyDeleteI love these little guys. You got some nice shots.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful shots of Red Bellied!! I can understand that it was difficult to pick just a few pics of this cute one!
ReplyDeleteWish you a nice evening:)
Good post with great shots!
ReplyDeletelol! love how he sits on his little round butt!
