Hi Team, Ann caught one of my recent images on FB and suggested that I should post it as a PESO, not being one to argue and being one of Ann's many admirers the image in question follows. I have been dribbling out images that I call my pre-gig pics, they are incidental images shot whilst

I find very similar looking Woodpeckers and the name issue I'm considering to be the answer. J Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 7, 2017, at 7:15 PM, ann sanfedele wrote: > > Ok Jack, so what book are you using? > This is a very common bird back here in the east. , one I know

Re: PESO Red-Breasted Beauty

Yep, a senior moment. Red-Bellied is the name, and it’s fitting in that the red tone is below the breast. They seem to be the second most common woodpecker here in Michigan, trailing only the Downey. Paul > On Nov 7, 2017, at 10:15 PM, ann sanfedele wrote: > > Ok Jack, so

Re: PESO Red-Breasted Beauty

Ok Jack, so what book are you using? This is a very common bird back here in the east. , one I know in person very well from years of watching them at a friends house north of the city. Paul said "red breasted beauty"  The actual name is Red-bellied - so perhaps some confusion there.

I failed to find a solid match to Paul's "Red-Breasted" image. Age and gender related differences complicate the choices. J Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 7, 2017, at 6:04 PM, ann sanfedele wrote: > > Jack - that name always bothered me , but probably to distinguish from the

Re: PESO Red-Breasted Beauty

Jack - that name always bothered me , but probably to distinguish from the red-headed wood-pecker, name wise in addition to that faint reddishness on his belly...  This one I know well, but he also resembles the gila-woodpecker of Arizona ... ann On 11/7/2017 5:00 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote:

I could be wrong. I’ll look further, although I think others have said that similar peckers are red breasted. Paul > On Nov 7, 2017, at 5:35 PM, Jack Davis wrote: > > Yes, I see it a bit better from this > angle. > As it happens, the Red Breasted > in my field guide

Re: PESO Red-Breasted Beauty

Yes, I see it a bit better from this angle. As it happens, the Red Breasted in my field guide shows deep red covering the head as well as the breast. Doesn't necessarily mean that my book is the Bird Bible. :) J Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 7, 2017, at 2:00 PM, Paul Stenquist

Re: PESO Red-Breasted Beauty

Yes, although “Red Breasted” is the audubon name, the red crown is the prominent feature. However, the breast does show a tinge of red. I have a couple of pics, while not very attractive, show the red underside. I’ll post one. https://www.photo.net/photo/18434556/Red-Breasted-Woodpecker > On

I agree it's a "beauty" but the red I see is in the form of a scull cap. Really nice catch, Paul! J Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 7, 2017, at 12:20 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > > A woodpecker posing nicely in my backyard this afternoon > >

Brian, Those are all very good themes. I especially like "Upon closer examination..." As a thought, - you can always pair up some of them (I am using you original order): ;-) "Symmetry of arches" "Circular Shadow" "Cold gathering" "Night on the streets" "Tilted sunrise/sunset" or "tilted
