Pileated Woodpecker

Couldn't capture a close up of this guy darting around my yard today, he would not sit still long enough for me to get close.

Great shot!

Getting any shot is just fantastic! What a pretty setting you caught him in. Would love to spot one.

[Susan]

Wonderful shot. They are beautiful birds, i "caught" one last year about this time.

[KWind]

Wonderful image! Love the light.

[Gena Pegg]

Oh it's a great fun shot. They are difficult to capture. I did get some on this trip, but couldn't get close enough to make a real clear shot. Fun to see though.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Oh wow! This is a 'close up' to me. I never get this good a view of the elusive birds myself. Wonderful capture.

Thank you for the comment shared on my monarch caterpillar picture. I am so hoping to catch a monarch butterfly with my camera yet this year.

[Bep]

Well captured.

@cejaanderson @joansmor @flyrobin @leestevo @cirasj @fayefaye @blueberry1222 @lyndemc @gijsje Thanks so much! When the leaves are on the trees, I usually only hear them. They have a unique "call" - just like woody woodpecker from the cartoons.
