I believe this is a male,

I have never seen these beautiful birds at my feeders before.

Shot through double pane window glass, using the canon 70-300 IS USM lens with the kenko DGX 1.4X converter.

Thank you for commenting, postwork done in photofiltre studio.

I was kneeling on the floor and looking up at him for this capture, trying not to scare him off.

I think this could be a Red Shafted Flicker (part of the woodpecker family) click here to help me on this one.

At first I thought it was a yellow bellied sapsucker but I don't think so.

Thanks for commenting, I do appreciate it.
