Red-bellied Woodpecker photos, South Burlington, VT
The Red-bellied Woodpecker in our South Burlington, Vermont backyard have a tan belly and the side of their head is tan. The nape , top of the head to the forehead and neck are orange-red (to my eye). Their wings, tail, and back are black with what I call white checkering or barring.
The female is orange-red on the nape only, not on the top of the head or forehead.
I can fly all day without leaving our kitchen window, thanks to visiting birds. ~Bernie
Happy Birding
