Red bellied woodpecker, often mistakenly called red-headed woodpecker, but oddly enough, it was named for the pinkish hue on its stomach.

I'm fascinated by the beauty in a common starling, a bird we usually overlook or get irritated with because it travels in large groups, makes lots of noice and eats too much.

Female cardinal. Cardinals tend to stay close to their mates, but I have yet to photograph them side by side.
