When I was walking at the Desert Botanical Garden, I kept hearing the call of the Gila Woodpeckers. There seemed to be lots of them all over the garden.
One of them was even rat-a-tat-tatting on the top of a metal light cover. It flew away before I could get a photo.
These two to the right were chattering away on this cactus. It made me wonder if there was a nest inside.

Hard at work. Nice coat of colours and patterns
Nice collection of Gila Woodpeckers. I have never seen them in my neighborhood.
Seeing with our ears first,
I don't think that we have those ones here. The cactus spines must not bother them.
Nice day for some bird spotting.
They are beautiful birds.
The woodpeckers seem to be working hard at their craft. Great photos!
That second one is definitely a new one.
That cactus definitely looks like a probable nesting site!
