This cute little downy woodpecker was on one of the ash trees in the front yard. It was nearly dusk, but I had to try to get a picture of him. He let me get pretty close before he few up in the tree limbs. According to Wikipedia downy woodpeckers are the smallest woodpeckers in North America. Personally I think they are the cutest.

They are a very cute bird. Did you use your flash? Good details for the conditions.
