Melanerpes carolinus
Bright red forehead, cap and nape. A boldly black and white barred back.
Normally they can be seen hitching along trunks and limbs of trees. This one was swinging in the strong wind on a tiny branch with berries.

Thanks Reza. The wind was giving him quite a ride on that small twig :)
Beauty !
