WOODY

Another in the series, 7 x 10 Rough...



The pileated woodpecker comes to our suet feeders once or twice a year, but never stays.  He's just passing through.  

This woodpecker is the model for the Woody the Woodpecker cartoons - you can see why with that red topknot!

He's a beauty, Rhonda! And yes, a great model for a favorite cartoon character :)
I just love this series!

Good rendition Rhonda. We have many of them here in Florida and they are noisy . I can always tell when one is around.. Beautiful with that black , white, and red on top.

Thanks, Chris, Barbra, Laura and Clipping path :). I don’t notice the noise but I do notice that spark of red and the unreal size of the thing when he (or she) comes through.

Seen a few in Canada, so many trees were I use to live you could hear them all the time
