Downy Woodpecker Birdmark

These 7" birds are the smallest woodpeckers in North America, and also one of the most common. Preferring deciduous forests as their habitat, their diet consists of seeds and insects. Sometimes misidentified as the rarer and larger Hairy Woodpecker.

Part of a series of 9 bird bookmarks soon to be on sale in my shop.

My blog has previews of the rest, as well as some in-progress images and notes.
