Bird I.D

This is the bird I was talking to Laura about, bad pics shot through a screen window upstairs, as it is the only way my zoom will reach and heavily cropped.

I think, this is a Yellow bellied Sapsucker(honestly, I am not making these names up )


This one I am stuck on, at first I thought it was the same, then realised it was a different Woody.
I think it's a male Hairy Woodpecker?????



Thanks for your help xxxx

Re: Bird I.D

Thanks Dawn I think they come down here for the winter, as they have only recently appeared.

I wasn't sure what the second one was,been using this site http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/browse.aspx to try and I.D but my pic was so bad, hard to tell what it was

Thank you x

Re: Bird I.D

Excellent site - I've saved it too! Sapsucker is gorgeous - I'd probably go with Downy too - but could be hairy!
