This guy managed to damage his left wing somehow, to the point that he has to hobble to get around. Flight appears to be out of the question any time soon. I left the back door open and I guess he decided to take refuge behind the rig at some point. Heard some rustling and an occasional chirp right next to me as I was chilling in the living room.

Took him in for a bit and fed him a variety of pulverized unsalted nuts. Ultimately passed him along to friend of mine who's tended to a number of birds over the years since the local pet ER wouldn't tend to wildlife. And since I have no idea what to do with a wild bird, as much as I don't mind have him hanging around.

I let him roam around a bit while he was here. He's apparently quite a gear whore because he always ended up on or behind the half stack or on top of various guitar cases. I like this lil guy...

Cool, a woodpecker.

That's awesome that you take a peek at a few crappy, blurry photos and know exactly what it is at a glance. Took me a ton of web browsing and I still wasn't positive.

But I guess I should've known by the way he'd thrash at my fingers when I fed him. Haha. Got some power for a little guy.

I've been a bird guy since I was a wee little lad.
Great that you helped it out!
