David Bowie Bird

My contribution to Eileeninmd's Saturday's Critters #121. And I"m also linking to Annii's I'd-Rather-B-Birdin. This Red-bellied Woodpecker flew in for a visit on the porch last week on Cacapon Mountain, and the light was just right.




Mouse over pics for captions, and click them for larger versions.

That bird looks awfully familiar, but it doesn't look angry. Great pics, as always.
