Taken while walking on the dirt trail at Seminole park. He was so busy pecking on this branch. Love that bright red head.

  I love watching bird behaviour. I have certainly learnt a lot from them just observing them through my photography. A delightful capture of this red head Kay.

  Thank you every one for all of your comments. I love to watch them. They can be really loud when they are pecking on the trees.

  I just saw one of these beauties as I was driving up the road perched in a tree! They are the coolest of all woodpeckers..and I think the biggest! Had one hopping in my backyard once for an hour and haven't had one since (in almost 8 years!!) Thanks for sharing your great photo!
