Better photo day

On Sep 1st I photographed and posted a photo of a Twelve-spotted Skimmer at the oasis, but today I got better shots of one.


Also got better shots of a sapsucker than I had previously. I wasn't sure if this is a Red-naped or a Yellow-bellied, but Kelly Bryan says it's a Yellow-bellied. Both frequent the oasis. It's probably an immature, which explains the white under the chin and no black bib below the red on the throat.




 I hate the damage they do to my trees though. This tree is a Honey Locust. It doesn't appear that there's much sap for it to suck from this tree. It's "sap wells" are dry, I think.
