Downy woodpecker, female

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

This little woodpecker was hanging out with the male in the previous photo. If you see them side by side with the much larger but otherwise very similar hairy woodpecker, one of the things you notice is how tiny the bill of this species is, compared that of the hairy woodpecker.

Great photo of this striking bird! That bill indeed doesn't look like it would do too much damage to a tree.
