It warmed up to a few degrees before freezing for one day, before dipping again. For some unknown reason, the birds all went away when it got warmer, then came back yesterday.
When they came back, the male and female Red-bellied Woodpeckers took turns at the the bird feeder. Only once, for less than a second, were they perched side by side, but I wasn’t fast enough to get that shot.
I’m happy the birds came back! Excellent shots, as always, and the mohawk is so trendy 🙂

Beautiful, as always. I wonder why they went away when it was warm. Maybe sun flower seed is for cold days? 😉 Very interesting.

Love the title and the capture of the cardinal mohawk. Now all the other birds will be wanting the same feather do. 🙂

Not much difference between the male and female woodpecker is there?

Except for that red band that completely covers the male’s head, there is not much difference between the two. Thanks for visiting and commenting, Sukanya!
