A great composition,I think it was this type of woodpecker that used to enjoy our olive grove in Italy. :)

ReplyDeleteNice shots! I like seeing woodpeckers in my yard, but I used to have a rather pesky one that would attack my house.
ReplyDeleteI love these guys. They don't take any guff from the starlings and chase them off the suet...Michelle from Nature Notes
