This little Red Shafted Woodpecker comes on our yard frequently, grubbing for worms. Anyways, we think it’s the same bird but then again, they all seem to look alike. This one, however, does not have the bright red coloring on his cheeks that I’ve seen on other Red Shafted Woodpeckers. They are a fun bird to watch. I don’t know if it was a Red Shafted Woodpecker or not but we used to have a woodpecker that would peck away at a transformer on our power pole just out our front door. That was pretty annoying. The sound was a really loud ping, ping, ping, and he was around in the summer for several years. Don’t know what happened to him but one year he just didn’t come back, which didn’t hurt our feelings any. What a crazy bird!
