I, too, have had one working my apple tree. He/she has been here several times in December and once this month.

Hello Tweeties!

I found a Red Breasted Sapsucker working over a small tree in my yard around 1:30 this afternoon (1/4). How common are these beauties around here? The bird had a very RED and rounded head and breast. Very flashy!
