We have had Red-bellied woodpeckers (and Pileateds) coming regularly to our suet in Cumberland Center for years. The most recent visits for both species was yesterday. I am quite sure the Red-bellies have nested nearby as we have occasionally had a pair show up and also have seen an adult introducing a juvenile to the suet. We began seeing them for the first time perhaps 5-6 years ago. 

The latest surprise was a FLICKER at our suet yesterday!

We first noticed a red-bellied woodpecker at our sunflower kernel feeder in 2023 and one returns periodically. Usually several days in a row. Most recently yesterday.

We've had a red-bellied woodpecker here three times in the last couple of weeks. It's a first for us at the feeders.

I've been enjoying a Red-bellied Woodpecker at my feeders here in Pittsfield for about a week now - not a common bird in this area.
