Description

This poor beautiful dead woodpecker was on the ground in my friend's backyard this morning. I looked it up in my bird book and I reckon it is a female downy woodpecker, but I am not a bird expert, so I could be wrong.

I am assuming it probably hit a window and died from the concussion?
