Last week I shared many of my yard birds, but did not include a picture of the
Downey Woodpecker.
Both males and females hang around the feeders...
neither are camera shy.
Here are some pictures of the male, he quite likes having his picture taken.
He lands here first...
then shows off his pretty red feathers.
Next he comes in closer to the window...

and catches the pretty light.
A wink...
then a stare down...
and this is the last one I took, right before he took off.

Hello, Debbie! These are all beautiful captures of the male Downy Woodpecker. They are one of my favorite yard birds. I love the colors and the wood in your photos, very pretty. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!

Lovely. That third shot is really cool
They are beautiful...
Never see them so close of course.
Thank you!
Oh wow! Debbie such amazing shots of this cutie!
It always amazes me how the pretty birds in your neck of the woods love to be captured by your camera. The Downey Woodpecker is a handsome fellow.
I live watching the woodpeckers at our feeder - they’re so awkward! You got some fantastic shots of this handsome guy!
I wish mine were that cooperative! Beautiful photos!
Love that red patch on his back. Great photos, Debbie.
Really nice shots of this cute bird.
Oh my gosh! More of your amazing bird pictures. That 3rd photo is incredible!
He is a handsome fella. I have his kind at my feeders regularly.
Awww - so sweet.
Picture four needs to be framed.
Oh what a beauty that babe is. You really caught some pretty pics in this shoot. Thanks for sharing, brought a smile this morning.
Always love seeing your 'critters'. :)

I don't think I have ever seen a downy woodpecker. He is gorgeous! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving.
I saw a female downy on my feeder yesterday, but my pic is not nearly as clear as yours. Nice!
Absolutely spectacular & oh so special! Great photos of the Downy!
Thanks for linking in with us birders at I'd Rather B Birdin' this weekend!
We saw some lovely birds in the Dominican Republic. Nothing like birds at home sweet home, though!
Oh these are perfect shots- so close!
Oh my goodness he is just beautiful and you have achieved some terrific photos of him!! Those closeups are just stunning! Awesome!
Oh, this male Downey Woodpecker is a beauty. You got some amazing shots. I love the strips and the lovely colors on this one. What is not surprising at all is that you captured it's personality. You are such an expert at that.
Blessings and hugs dear friend!
What a cutie.
Great shots! You're going to have to share your secrets for getting those birds to model so nicely for you.
Your little Downey Woodpecker is so cute Debbie. Thank you for sharing him and have a wonderful week :)
Such a beautiful bird, the colours are amazing.
All the best Jan
