Very unique Woodpecker indeed.
You did nicely to capture this one. He's found your little paradise.
Time for some LUNCH.

It looks like a Cooper's to me... you'll need to see the whole tail to make sure. A Cooper's tail tips are Curved, while a Sharpie's is Square. They're stealth bombers that come out of nowhere and eat the little birdies. Their favorite snack is Dove... yummy!

Thanx Lazy,
tell me you mean "DOVE" chocolate - dont you????

nNice Bird Pecker... As far as Cats and children, I would worry about your cats, Hawks can pick up rabbits and such. Cats shouldn't be outside anyway.

One day this summer, I was setting up to take pictures of birds at my feeder in the back yard from a window in our back room. From out of nowhere something swooped down and all the little friendly birdies took off in every direction. Hell, I almost went with them cause it scared me too. I managed to get a couple of shots before he took off. This shot he was just stretching. My wife and I had been seeing several birds and even a couple of rabbits with missing heads. I figured this guy was responsible.
