Female Downy Woodpeckers

Female Downy Woodpeckers foraging on Palmetto trees in the Florida Backyard which are just full of bugs. The Downys are the smallest North American woodpecker about the same size as the red cockaded woodpeckers that also live around here. The female Dwonys lack the red patch on the nape of the neck. One of these females has a fair amount of yellowish coloration on its head which is unusual in the eastern and Florida Downys.
