Clinging to an Oak Tree
For all the World to See
Beautiful in Colors of Three
I have been trying for several days to capture this gorgeous Red-headed Woodpecker with my camera. Finally got a few shots today!
It has been delightful observing their behavior of flying from tree to tree, chasing each other either in trying to impress a mate or intimidate a foe, drumming to announce their availability, digging a hole for a nest or just pecking their way up a tree for food.
Digging just the right nesting hole.
“How is it looking from down there?”
All in a Day’s Work
Until next time
Pay attention if you see me, because I’am one handsome bird!
