Picoides dorsalis
I was thinking walking, why I don't have any decent picture of woodpickers when this guy came out from nothing and start to pick and climb the tree.
Wasn't sure between Hairy and Black backed after a little research. Either one was right... hahaha. Thanks again.
The yellow marking on the top of the head suggests either an American Three-toed Woodpecker, or a Black-backed Woodpecker. One can further differentiate the two by the amount of black on the back of the body. Since this bird has white on its back, it's an American Three-toed Woodpecker.
