I met Photoman and mkybear at Lambton Woods on Sunday.
While we were snapping Downies and Hairies the Red-bellied flew right over our heads into this tree!
 

 
 
Checking us out.
 

 
 
You can see the red belly in this pic.

You never know what's going to happen out there.  Now if only the Pileated would do that...

A birth certificate shows we were born.  A death certificate shows we died.  Pictures show we live.

Nice pics of a beautiful bird.  I've never seen the "red belly" and actually wondered how it got it's name :)

"To be a better nature photographer, be a better naturalist.The more you know about nature,the more you will see to photograph. Develop a deeper compassion for the world around us, and live by an ethic of concern for the subject matter."

Thanks everyone!
 
To Moira & rayvnne,
I specifically posted pic #3 because it showed the red belly.
I too had wondered how/why this bird got its name.
