Williamson's Sapsucker?

Post by MtnAg08 »

The all black back and white wing patch make me think it has to be a Williamsons. One of the photos you can see a small spot of red under the beak and a tiny spot of yellow on the bottom belly so guessing a young, immature one. Can anybody confirm? Thanks!

Sweet! That's the 5th different type of woodpecker I've seen this spring/summer!
