One Golf Course and three Woodpeckers

Keene NH
While spending a few days with friends last summer during a holiday to New England I was able to Spend a couple of evenings walking the Brentwood Golf Course to do a spot of birding.
Plenty of smart birds around such as Eastern Bluebirds, Belted Kingfisher and Grey Catbird but I was particularly pleased to see three Woodpecker species.

Downy Woodpecker

Yellow Bellied Sapsucker

Northern Flicker

 

Belted Kingfisher

I stayed with friends near Keene NH  for a few days last summer. I was able to walk the local Bretwood Golf Course a couple of times and got to see some great birds such as Eastern Bluebird, Yellow Bellied Sapsucker and this magnificent Belted Kingfisher.

Not surprisingly the best birding of the week was while on the Golf Course and the surrounding area.

Visited New England last year for a family holiday but managed to get some wildlife watching in during our trip.
