'YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER'

Not only has it been a beautiful Easter weekend but, again a beautiful day today. I'm trying to get some outdoor work done. And as you fellow-gardners know, it takes alot of time and work!
In November of 09, I was very excited to have a female Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker visit my backyard. Well, today I was just thrilled when a male visited the same tree. In all of the years I've lived here, I've never had one visit the yard.

  2. Oh, look at that sweet baby. I call them sweet even when they are banging on the metal gutters early in the morning on the weekend. My hubby calls then something different when that happens. Shh...

LOL! I need to update my blog soon...it's been far too long since I posted. Have a good weekend! Hugs!

  5. Great capture. Here we have the Red-naped sapsuckers and they are a lot of fun to watch, drilling holes to collect sap and insects. Thanks for sharing.

  7. ...you're so lucky! I've never had one in my backyard. My parents did, and I always loved looking at the holes he left behind in the big pin tree.
