Woody Woodpecker

Of all the woodpeckers that visit my yard this is my favorite. Its colors are unmistakable and I think it served as a model for "Woody Woodpecker," rather than the Acorn Woodpecker many references claim. When comparing images side-by-side the Red-Headed is a dead ringer for Woody.

I love this picture. I have taken pictures of the Red-headed Woodpecker but have never captured anything close to yours. Thanks for sharing.

Stunning pose and detail ! .........thanks for sharing. The Red Heads are quite challenging and elusive ( for me).

Nice photo...
The bird Woody Woodpecker is modeled after is the Pileated Woodpecker.
