Yellow-bellied Sapsucker-SW Denver

[Doug Ward]

We had an adult female YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER come into our suet feeders briefly earlier this afternoon (Fri. 13 Mar’26) in the Athmar Park neighborhood near Huston Park (SW Denver Co.).  No sign of hybridization with a Red-naped at all, so a fun new yard bird!  She hasn’t returned since the first sighting, but will keep the group posted if she turns out to be a repeat customer.  If by chance you would still like to check the area, please feel free to get ahold of me separately for more details.

 

Good Birding,

Doug
