Description

My favorite backyard Gila Woodpecker has discovered the orange I post for Verdins and much hoped for orioles. This bird has a decided preference for sweets as he also attacks the hummingbird feeders. I love to hear the woodpeckers trumpet their arrival before they appear to take a snack.
