Yellow-bellied sapsuckers

An excellent friend saw her first yellow-bellied sapsucker this weekend at the Garden.

It wasn't so long ago that I saw my first confirmation that sapsuckers actually exist (we see their evidence everywhere). I saw a pair last weekend (remarkably), but had seen several at the Garden (with my gardening companion) a couple of weeks ago. He remembered that we saw our first sighting last fall (at the Garden).
