This is a male Red-bellied Woodpecker that I encountered at Morton Refuge in Sag Harbor. One of the ways to discern a male Red-belly from a female is where the red atop their head begins. As you can see in these photos, the red on a male starts at the bill, whereas in a female, the red doesn’t begin till after the eyeball. JK.

Two days ago, I posted a pair of photos of a Bluebird that went over fairly well. Here are two more pics of that same bird. I’m not at all sure that they are as good but I thought some folks might like to see them. Plus, I’m feeling kinda lethargic and lazy from Thanksgiving dinner and I thought to see if I get away with not working on a new set of pics. On the other hand, it’s not as if these are terrible photographs. They’re just not terribly good. 🙂 JK.

I was walking along one of the trails at Morton Refuge in Sag Harbor when I caught sight of this guy flitting among the trees ahead of me. This is a male Eastern Bluebird. Despite the fact that this is our state bird, I only rarely manage to see them. I was pretty happy about finding this one. JK.
