Hairy Woodpecker - Richmond, BC       Hairy Woodpeckers are one of the residents at the Richmond Nature Park found at the peanut and suet feeders behind the nature house.  One of the toughest things about birding is identifying Hairys vs Downys and you know what I mean if you have been in the field trying to figure out which one is ratcheting up the tree in front of you trying to get a view of the underside of the tail. In this photo you can see very clearly that there are no black marks on the underside of the tail which makes this a hairy woodpecker along with the slightly larger thicker bill.
