Yellow-bellied sapsucker (Sphyrapicus varius)

It must be November, because my yellow-bellied sapsuckers are back. I only see them, a pair, during migration time, two weeks in April and again in November.
I'll have to keep trying to get a shot I like of both though; she shows up before dawn and he just before sunset. I don't know what they do with the rest of their day.
