I clicked this picture a long time ago. No. I have not lost interest in clicking pictures of woodpeckers but I just do not see them in our garden.
Not seeing woodpeckers is a good sign in that there are no dead trees to peck...

In winter, I hang a piece of tallow on a tree. This is food for bluebirds . But very often woodpeckers eat this food. In the summer they climb into the feeders for the sparrows and eat the food of small birds. Woodpeckers stopped...

Was looking out the window and noticed two woodpeckers in the tulip poplar tree. I grabbed the camera and stood on the deck, about 50 feet away, and snapped a few pics. Not very clear, no huge zoom lens to use, but you can still...

I heard two little bird voices outside on the pole. One was my usual woodpecker and one was another. It must have a mate. They were seriously discussing things right at the top of the pole. I would think they were discussing...

It is one thing if a tree does fall in your back yard; it is another thing altogether if it hits your house. That is why two trees in a neighbor's yard had to be taken down. The one the man is sitting in was gone shortly after I...

I had my suet out on a tail prop feeder. Woodpeckers and Flickers like to sit with their tails propped against it like they do in trees. A pair of male and female woodpeckers had been alternating, coming by morning and evening. I...

Since I got up this morning, a woodpecker has been rat-a-tat-tatting on the overhang outside my office window. It's driving me nuts. He will probably keep doing it on a daily basis, as he has in past years, until the men in white...

I went to pick up some items I had purchased at a local auction this morning and this item is kind of cute I think. It was purchased with a $3 winning bid. It is about 12 inches tall by 10 inches wide. I may repaint it to look...

I have taken a strong liking to woodpeckers as every morning when I wake up I would hear a woodpecker pecking away on a tree. I could not see it. After attaching a suet feeder to my birdfeeder, I get two different woodpeckers...

Have you ever watched woodpeckers making a hole in a tree stump. Amzing that they do not get headaches?
