Woodpecker



Not real sure if this scruffy bird is a Downy Woodpecker or Hairy Woodpecker. Perhaps someone with a better bird book than mine can tell for sure. Either way I got a couple of pictures of him before he got shy and flew further into the woods.

  1. That's some good shots of the bird but I like the moss growing on the tree. I guess I'm just wierd!

  3. You have been providing some nice bird pictures lately! Around here in the city, you going to need a 600mm to capture a picture like this. Nice work!

    1. Thank you Q.
      The Sigma 120-400mm on the dx sensor D7100 is effectively a 180-600mm lens... These woodpeckers are really shy!

  4. The combination of the bird and moss on the tree makes for an appealing shot.
