Species: Red-breasted Sapsucker
Most recent capture date: 2/1/2023
Age: at least two years old

Notes: We know these handsome woodpeckers are around CCFS in the winter because we see their signature feeding marks on the trees, but we rarely catch them. In the past five years we have only caught one Red-breasted Sapsucker besides this one. Despite their bright plumage, we can’t tell the sex of this bird: in this species both males and females are equally decorated.
