Nature Woody Up Close

Woody Up Close · **4 Likes**

Been trying to shoot him out my office windows but when I point the Bigma his way, he scadoddles in a hurry. Today I got lucky and got a couple of quick snaps!

I think he is a young Woody? The old Woody didn't run from me last year.

Further out in the Woods of Otis, I heard the dove on the right say to the one on the left......"You are supposed to be covering my back....do I hear snoring?"

Regards!

I can't believe you get such great IQ out the window. You have mastered that lens for sure.

All you have to do for the Red-bellied Woodpecker is look at the top of the head 😉

Well, a Red-bellied male has a red nape and cap. The female just has a red nape.
