Bird Watching




Red-bellied woodpecker. Except the belly isn't red. It's definitely a woodpecker of some kind, though.




I think this is a black-throated blue warbler, but I am not certain. It is the closest picture in my bird book. Anyone know for sure?

    More great pictures - thanks for sharing. According to wikipedia, the red belly isn't distinct, just a tinge, and they say difficult to see in the field. Apparently it is called this to distinguish it from the red headed woodpecker (though the red head is the most obvious feature!) which has no faint blush of red on its belly.
