Seattle Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I caught this woodpecker on a trail cam in eastern WA over the weekend. Is it a Williamson's sapsucker or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 (edited) Facial pattern, red spot on the back of the head, and bill length look like a Downy Woodpecker. Edited August 14 by Charlie Spencer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWM Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Could it be a Hairy? Bill looks a little long for Downy? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seattle Posted August 14 Author Share Posted August 14 I looked at both of those but I thought it had too much black on it's face. More like a white eyebrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Spencer Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Upon further review, I agree with Hairy. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I looked at the bill length. Maybe I just got them crossed in my mind? Anyway, Hairy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
