Treetop Watcher
I spotted this bird high in the top of a distant tree while on safari in my backyard yesterday (25 October 2026). The species is a little difficult to make out from this angle, especially with the bird partially obscured by the branches. Still, there is something familiar about its posture that practically screams "woodpecker." I'm fairly certain it's a yellow-bellied sapsucker (Sphyrapicus varius), a species that managed to elude me all last year.
