Woodpecker

 Way back in February, I posted about the woodpecker that visits our bird feeder Here.  Well, I finally got a picture -


Back then, I commented on the fact that although it is known as a Red-Bellied Woodpecker its belly is actually white.  

I don't think you can see it - even if you blow the picture up - but it does have a rosy glow between its legs, almost like a severe case of jock itch.  It is several degrees south of what I'd call its belly, but I suppose Red-Bellied sounds better than Red-Crotched
