Seed Seeker....


The red bellied woodpecker surprised me with his seed seeking behaviors.  I know in the winter that they pick seed out of the suet but during this spring he is busy selecting the exact seed that he likes.  He shoves his beak back and forth in the seed pile until he finds what he wants. He reminds me of a person with a plow pushing through material.
