Thank you, Kathy! I’ve been paying attention to what parts of birds are good
for IDs and doing my best to get better shots, especially if I might need to
send them to this list. (So, I made sure to choose a pic with the pink wash on
the red-bellied male’s belly.) -Holly

Thank you so much!
Last year, there was a nest in that tree, and I could hear tiny birds making
little squeaky sounds from inside the same limb/knothole. But last year,
there were male and female ladder-backed woodpeckers in that tree. I do have
pics of the male with some kind of tasty-looking bugs, headed into the tree
to feed the young. (I missed their emergence, whenever it happened.)

Yes, it looks like a female Golden-fronted Woodpecker. These species are
known to hybridize.

Sunday afternoon, I saw this male red-bellied woodpecker going in and out
of a nest in a willow tree on the east side of Dupree Park. This other
woodpecker was also with him. Is she a golden-fronted female?
Thank you,
