he is gorgeous!!! what a beautiful bird... we have been hearing a loud shriek during the day and thought it might be a hawk... we finally saw the bird and it is a tiny wood pecker of some kind, with a big voice.
A Spotted Woodpecker ... that's a first for me. I have never seen nor even heard of them before. Very nice pictures and I am wondering now where your bird feeder is that has such an awesome bird coming to it :)
Dearest Sonija; Wow, this gorgeous woodpecker visit your feeder fairly often♫♫♫ You've made me feel jealous a bit(♡^.^♡) Feeder my husband made me long time ago didn't work at all, so took it off p:-)
Thank you so much for your sweet comments; I REALLY appreciate them♡♡♡ Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend in Portugal, xoxo Miyako*

Great photos of a beautiful bird. Your photos are so sharp! *sigh* Mine are all fuzzy, especially now when the autumn darkness has arrived. :) Wonderful images, in particular those of flowers, also in your other posts! Happy Sunday!

So pretty! One or two visit my garden too.
He's CUTE! I've heard a woodpecker a couple of times here in our desert, but haven't seen him.
Es un pájaro precioso. Un beso.
dental anything is not good for me, hope you feel better soon and glad you got a few moments of laughter.
Isn't it lovely??!!
I spotted a pileated on my last walk!
Lovely photos. I like to watch them here, too.
Very amazing photos of the beautiful bird. Have a nice evening
Hi. True stunning photography. Great spotted woodpecker has come enjoying delicacies.
Beautiful shots of the bird.
Nise work Sonija. Now I see that your hide is beautifully positioned.
seems to be a female. :) She has some company there even if they are motionless :)
Fantastic. That would be a real rarity here, but there are a few of them down in the Scottish Borders.
Nice shots Sonjia, I have a male he flies straight over my garden and ignores my feeders. Take care, Mike.
Lovely photos :)
Wonderful photos of the woodpecker! They're beautiful birds.
Beautiful photos, I am in love with her.

Beautiful shots of the woodpecker. I don't have this one in my area.
Super shots of the Woodie visitor Sonija.
In your last photo he seems to turn around as if to say, 'Are you still taking photos of me?'
Fantastic set of pictures of this handsome bird!
Love, love, LOVE your woodpecker photos!

Your woodpecker photos...they're all like portraits. Spectacular.
Your contribution for us birders at I'd Rather B Birdin' this weekend is much appreciated!!
