Contributed Photos: Red Bellied Woodpecker, Hawk, and Mockingbird

 

Male Red-Bellied WoodpeckerI have spent the last several days listening to several woodpeckers pecking away and finally this morning I spotted this Male pecking away. Red-Bellied Woodpeckers are my favorite bird! This photo was taken by misseymarie in Butler.

 

HawkThis hawk has been hanging out in my backyard for some time. I finally got a pic. Usually it flies away before I get the camera. Any ideas of what kind it may be????
