Gardenwatch Woodpecker Pin

Description

This painting is based on the original photograph 'Red-bellied Woodpecker Showing Her Red Belly' by Cindy Treger, whose express consent has been requested to use as a reference The Red-bellied Woodpecker is a medium-sized Woodpecker in the Picidae family. All red-bellied woodpeckers show a black and white barred back, white upper tail coverts, greyish white undersides, black chevrons on the lower flanks and below the tail coverts, and barred central tail feathers. Despite the name, the red on the belly is often not visible in the field, and the most prominent red part of its plumage is on the head.
