Title: Yellow-bellied sapsucker
Post by: mr.sharp-photo on April 17, 2012, 08:42:08 PM

These came out at 11 AM sharp.
I saw 4 of them. First time I've spotted one.

Bloody hard to photograph.

Good ones Richard, yes they tend to stay up at the tops of the trees.
I got lucky today and got one closer to the ground, I may post it later.
