Ladderback Woodpecker

May 29, 2006 · Comments

I’ve been seeing a number of different woodpeckers at my caged suet feeder recently, single or in pairs.

I’m not exactly sure on their identification yet, but I think they are either 3-toed, Downy, or Ladderback Woodpeckers.

    We have for the first time observed a pair of ladderback woodpeckers at our suet near Crossville,Tennessee.We did not know at first what kind of woodpecker this was but if you type in"ladderback, woodpecker"there is a large picture of a male.The bird that you have pictured looks like a young female with limited speckled markings,or she is just getting the full coat of speckled feathers.
