Nature Friday - Downy Woodpecker

 While you will see that jays and squirrels dominate our feeders, we do get other visitors. One of Lady's favourite is the Downy Woodpecker. 

We are lucky to have several types of woodpeckers in our area, including the very large pileated one.

Here are a few shots of the Downy.



Thanks Rosy for hosting this hop!
