Sketch - Red Bellied Woodpecker

With me working on the journals, I haven't done much in the way of sketching.  I did manage this one yesterday taking a break from everything else. 

This guy has been coming around quite a bit here lately.  And what's funny, he doesn't let the bullies chase him off.  I watched a dove try to chase him off and he wasn't about to be intimidated. 

The one question I have that I've not found an answer to that satisfies my curiosity is WHY is this bird called a Red Bellied Woodpecker.  Red is on his head (and this guy had red eyes).  I haven't seen red on their bellies.
