Both are soft, I know. Taken with the new 400 and my 2X for 800mm but with bad form on my part. I was not using a tripod but had the camera braced. Not so good.

Woodpecker at the feeder
This guy has become a regular at my back yard feeder and he is welcome. I love seeing a woodpecker. They have always alluded me and I guess that is why I highly regard them.

I love having the woodpeckers visit my feeders. In the summer I put out suet dough which isn't so drippy and they bring their babies too. Stop by and visit my weekly 'Nature Notes' meme....Michelle
ReplyDeleteHe is gorgeous. I often *hear* the woodpeckers working away, but don't often get to see them and take a photo. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots - love the vibrant red!
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful that is.
ReplyDeletePlease take a peek at the Mocking Bird at my page.
One to be proud of. I keep trying to get a woodpecker visitor but he just flies around the perimeter.
ReplyDeleteNice shots of the downy! After the cardinals, woodpeckers are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love the Downy woodpeckers. Great shots.
ReplyDeleteYour images are stunning. http://songofhaiti.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteSoft or not, both are good. I'm sure you will at some stage set up the tripod and wait for him to get the perfect shot.
