Sunday, January 18th, 2026 at 5:14:00 PM · 2026/Backyard Birding
This photograph captures an Acorn Woodpecker clinging to a green mesh bird feeder in a backyard setting. The bird displays its characteristic bold plumage pattern with a red crown, black face, white forehead patch, and stark black-and-white body. The feeder contains what appears to be peanuts or similar nuts visible through the wire mesh. The background is softly blurred with hints of purple flowers and green foliage, creating a pleasant bokeh effect that isolates the subject. The bird is photographed in profile, showing its strong, pointed beak adapted for drilling into wood.
