    I hate woodpeckers - such loud little fellas. I was always more partial to Wrens myself.

    Great pic though.

    With "downy" in her name and her appearance... I want to pet her. She looks really soft!

    My HoT is here.

    Great shot! I love these birds - they are so pretty! I have a photo of one too, but he wasn't very cooperative for me to take his photo.

    Is there no red because she's female? I heard the males in most animals are the most colorful.

    Lovely picture. I noticed the other day that the view of my suet feeder has a branch in the way. That's a must move. I haven't had the time to watch birds because I'm working now and I miss it so badly.
