Show your red belly...

When it comes to Red-bellied Woodpeckers (Melanerpes carolinus) of which I've seen a few, I'm often frustrated like many others, by not always seeing the red belly feathers.  The bird has a knack for hiding them, it seems.   Here are two photos that readily show the two aspects of this situation, however.   I took the photograph below at a bird feeder in a friend's backyard.   The friend's name is Ted Bird.
