A really fine, colorful and sharp capture of this Woodpecker,Terry.
Nice work as usual!

Thanks very much, Hal and Michael. Hal, they are after grubs in old rotted trees.
Michael, the 700 mm lens combination (500+1.4x) makes all the difference :)

Great close-up and fine framing. Highly detailed. You must have been close...

This is the most detailed close-up
of a wo0dpecker that l've ever seen.
Totally wonderful, Terry.
ln my ignorance of woodpeckers,
l don't even know why they peck cavities in trees !!
A brilliant image.
