I truly enjoy pictures that show faces of birds. Just weird I guess. Perhaps I mentioned this – Biolab Dr is a road that goes through Canaveral National Seashore along the Indian River.
I also tried a full size picture. Please let me know if there are problems loading it. Thanks!

Red Belly Woodpecker – Mullet Lake Park – December 2014Even the woodpecker owes his success to the fact that he uses his head and keeps pecking away until he finishes the job he starts” – Coleman Cox
The mystery is solved, I finally found a picture showing the red belly of the woodpecker. Most woodpecker pictures show them clinging to a tree and seldom reveal their belly. I found this guy searching my archives. Taken at Mullet Lake Park in Geneva, FL.

Being one of the largest birds in the wetlands they make great subjects. They have mastered the art of being still. plus they are big enough that you don’t need to be too close for nice pics.
