Much to my surprise, and after many days of there being no activity around the cylindrical suet feeder other than the North American Gery Squirrels (NAGS) trying to get at the goodies, I was thrilled to observe (and ultimately photograph) an adult female Downy Woodpecker this morning.
It was during the early morning, so unfortunately the lightening left a little to be desired and the photographs don't capture the striking colors as much as I would have liked. It is, at least, a start!
While those greedy, silly NAGS did eventually startle the Downy away from the feeder, she did return briefly before flitting over the fence and then into the bare branches of the tree. I certainly hope to get the opportunity to see her again as the season progresses.
