Separating Yellow-bellied and Red-naped Sapsuckers: part II

[SeEttaM .]

Gosh, I hadn't been around to participate in the Pueblo Reservoir CBC and compilation so forgot I wouldn't get home until 10 pm so just getting this out.  I expect some who looked at the photos I posted last night (Friday night) noted there was a hint of some red feathering at the bottom of that female sapsucker's otherwise white throat.  I have now posted a very close-up photo of that bird that more clearly shows how much red is present plus the scoring chart from the Migration Research Foundation from McGill Bird Observatory on my Birds and Nature blog. 

More close-ups showing other field marks tomorrow.
