Red-bellied Woodpecker

Birding, for me, is a solitary hobby for me most of the time. Most of the times that I have invited other people to sleuth with me through the trails and trees, it turns into more of a hike than a true birding expierence - and that is because 1: nobody wants to crouch in the bushes watching birds for extended periods of time, or 2: talking loud = no birds. Not that its a bad expierence! I love hiking! Now, I took my little sister birding at a park with some older growth trees (older than other parts of our hometown) and we were able to catch some woodpeckers! These are some of the most fun birds I like to watch because it is so cool to look for their little holes they leave behind and watch them climb upside down!
