A Rare Visitor
Highlight of the day. Trish and I went out to see this Red-bellied Woodpecker that has been hanging out in High River for a while now. From what I've read, this bird is a long way from home. They are only seen in the eastern states and I believe there has only been one previous record of one in Alberta. A new bird I had to see as there may not be another chance. I've been told that this is a female.
