Sunday, January 18th, 2026 at 5:13:58 PM · 2026/Backyard Birding
A striking Acorn Woodpecker clings to a green metal mesh feeder filled with peanuts in their shells. The bird displays its characteristic plumage: a bold red cap on the crown, black face with white forehead patch, creamy-white underparts with black streaking, and black wings with white patches. The feeder's wire mesh design allows the woodpecker to grasp onto it while feeding. The background is beautifully blurred with soft bokeh showing hints of purple flowers and green foliage, creating an appealing natural setting for this backyard birding scene.
