An adult pileated woodpecker gets some suet to feed a juvenile waiting on a nearby Douglas fir tree 🪶
Northern flicker stopped by for dinner suet while I was chilling out on the deck after dinner 🪶
Northern flicker at a bird bath flinging water above its head as it drinks. A Steller's Jay that is eating suet at the same time is then chased off by the flicker as it goes to get its own snack. 🪶
Red tailed hawk barely misses a robin. Makes a great whoosh sound too. 🪶
An adult hairy woodpecker feeding a juvenile some suet. The juvenile waited on the tree for several minutes. 🪶
