Female's

With the onset of cold temps, the Woodpeckers have been busy at the suet feeders this week. I thought I would show you two of the five types that visit our backyard. This female Pileated Woodpecker is 17" in length, compared to this female Downy Woodpecker, that is only 6" in length. The Pileated is very odd looking, and at one time was called the "Oh my gash Woodpecker" due to its size.

Even our bust of a female, is getting in to the Christmas spirit
