Great shot, Barbie! I see these woodpeckers all the time at my backyard feeder, but I can't get enough of them! I enjoy seeing their colors getting shots of them, too.

Thank you - and I wish I had them at my feeder all the time too! She just showed up here for the first time in March and I have never had one in the yard before.
