flightman Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I saw this woodpecker this morning in Lido Beach NY. Based on the red spots on the crown, I assume it is a juvenile male RBWO but I haven't found a matching photo. I don't know what else it might be.

BirdNrd Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) Yep, immature Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. Note the long white patch at the front edge of the wing. Edited October 3, 2020 by The Bird Nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
