Red-Breasted Sapsucker

A new bird, a Christmas gift.

Across the field, high in a tree, a dim silhouette at dusk with a unrecognized call: "Cheer"

Forget the binoculars!
A pocket digital camera with mega-zoom is a birder's best friend.


If I'd had presence of mind, I would have switched to video and captured its song.
