Red Bellied Woodpecker at the Cake Feeder

A male Red Bellied Woodpecker eats at my cake feeder, just outside the kitchen window (I was making dinner when he showed up). If you look closely, you can see his tiny needle-like tongue poking out as he cleans little bits of beef suet off the end of his beak. This is how he'd do with the tiny bits of smashed insect that would be on his beak tip after he'd drilled them out from the bark of a tree.

The cock stops by to eat every so often, but I have yet to see a hen.
