This is the female....gap in the red on the head.
The light was just right to show her red eye, but the shadows from the feeder were a problem for lots of lines where I didn't want them :-)
A very beautiful woodpecker and always a joy to see at my feeders!
Cropped in for a closer look.
There are those pesky shadows again.
Not a lot of variety, but she stayed long enough for me to enjoy watching her.

Great pictures of the Red-bellied, Mary... I love those birds... They are always around --wherever we go. Even when we went hiking in the Smokies recently, I heard some around us....
Hugs,

More superb images Mary, what a really colourful woodpecker this is.
Beautiful pictures, Mary! I hope to attract some woodpeckers this winter!
THese are great. You captured the beauty of the eye so well.
Isn't she a beautiful (festive) bird? Lovely photo, Mary.
These are nice photos...haven't had time to even look at the feeders today!
