I heard this woodpecker long before I spotted it at Fraser Foreshore Park in Burnaby, BC, today.
I’m thinking Downy Woodpecker, as it was on the small side.
There were also lots of bold chickadees looking for handouts. They will land on you if they think you’ve got seeds.
I spotted this pretty little hawk at Fraser Foreshore Park when it tried to catch something on the forest floor, and the motion caught my eye. Sharp-shinned?
Also a Cormorant taking a small fish in the river.
