Nice shooting guys!

A few small birds from today. I'm sick a bit. So, I went to my local park today, which is 5min. walking diastance from my house.

Here you go. All - with Sigma 500/4.5 hand-held

Funny, I'm quoting myself.

I had more time to research the bird. It is Acorn Woodpecker: Acorn Woodpecker, Identification, All About Birds - Cornell Lab of Ornithology

There is another shot of it:
