Baby Downy Woodpeckers, 6-4&5, 2011

Yesterday a baby boy downy landed in the tree near the suet, but didn't know the technique. He came back in a short while with Dad who is getting dinner!...


Dad bringing food to Sonny Boy on the left. The young males have a larger red spot on the top of their heads, not just the back....
This morning saw through the window a baby girl on top of suet with parent....
Went outside and it was Dad feeding the little chub......
Beak to beak.....
