the call of this woodpecker, I was confused as to what this bird was. The Redbellied Woodpeckers in my backyard are particularly vocal, and it is especially fun to listen to them when they have young ones to feed. Here is the resident female Red-bellied Woodpecker. For those who wonder about the name - the species has a red area on the lower belly. They are one of my favorites, and always willing to come to food bowls, even if just for a single sunflower seed.
