Bird Photography: Red-bellied Woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus)

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Here are some photos I recently took of this beautiful Red-bellied Woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus). I've seen (and heard) this woodpecker several times around as of late and I've finally managed to capture some great photos using only a smartphone/app, seeds and a homemade feeder.
Hope you enjoy!

What do you love most about feeding/watching birds?

Nice pics! I have a woodpecker outside my house pecking away at my telephone pole on a daily basis. It's annoying as hell but, so great to watch! One of these days, he's probably going to electrocute himself!

Thanks! Ya, this one seems to like the telephone pole near here as well. Lol, hopefully not!
