Another photo of this male Hairy Woodpecker that we saw on a walk the other day, in the Sikome/Boat Launch area of Fish Creek Park. I never tire of seeing the smart black and white with a splash of brilliant red. Hairy Woodpeckers are uncommon to common year-round in Alberta. You don't see them as often as the smaller Downy Woodpeckers. The bill is about as long as the head is wide, whereas the Downy Woodpecker has a much shorter bill.
