Thanks so much bayucca and Liam for your expertise!
I know! And same to you bayucca! Both of you have identified most of my spotting library!
I always wondered why he is not...
Thanks Liam. I think you have nailed it. Once again :)
I think it could be a Downy Woodpecker (Picoides pubescens).
Could this be an owl or another bird? Calling all bird experts!
