Hairy woodpecker, male

This guy was having a fine time feeding on seeds and crumbs of suet, at the feeder set up at the Fletcher Wildlife Garden in Ottawa. His funny pose is because he has his tail under the feeder, serving to prop him in this odd position.

1/60s f/6.3 at 150.5mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

If I where him, I'd go elsewhere, with better sitting accomodations! :) Marvelous creatures. V

such a readily available buffet must be attractive..wonderful capture Christine, as woodpeckers can be so skittish and elusive...V
