Downy Woodpecker

Comments appreciated, thank you!

Beautiful detail. These little guys make hanging on a tree look effortless, until you notice that death grip on the tree. I'm enjoying this whole series of birds and squirrels... Mike

 

 

Thank you, Mike! My daughter, Abby and I have been shooting pics together in our backyard. She is 14 and just became a member of PN. Her first photo is a peacock from her class trip to the Detroit Zoo last year with a Samsung 8 MP P&S. She is very excited and wants a camera like mine:-) Maybe a D60 would be in order for a future birthday...hmmm.

 

Have a good night!

Nice everything on this one.

Hmmm, better get her a Canon - otherwise she's going to be "borrowing" your lens :-)... Mike

 

 

Cool shot, Dicky. Amazing how much strength is in those little claws. Well done. Have a great week, my friend. Regards, Lawrence.

Thank you, Monte, Mike and Lawrence!

 

Mike, that was my wife's thought exactly!

 

Best regards,
