Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers
Suddenly I saw a woodpecker. Not a downy or a hairy. Different markings. Then it flew away. A sapsucker? One of those "common" birds I hadn't gotten around to seeing yet.
I watched for a bit--there it was! I peeked in my Peterson's. Distinctive white marking on the wing. I was right--a yellow-bellied sapsucker. Much grayer than I expected. A juvenile, no doubt. Soon another emerged and bothered the first. Two of them! I took about a dozen photos.
And then when I got home all the photos were blurry.
Except for this one and maybe the one up top.
But, a new bird. Never a problem.
