I got one! I got one! by joansmor

I got one! I got one!

My nephew came over to say there was a strange bird in the yard. It was a Pileated Woodpecker. I was wondering if I would ever get one for me project. He hung around loving those berries (seeds?) and almost oblivious to us. I took a lot o pictures none of the great for seeing all the bird but liked his eye on this one because you can see the black and the colored parts. Hope I get a better sometime. Had my shorter lens on. My sister said to get my long lens, but every time, I stop on my way to get a better lens I lose the short because the bird flies away. So I thought my shorter lens did pretty good and when I did change the lens he did fly away.
Awesome fav for me!

Fabulous! My son told me there was a woodpecker on the smaller pine tree just outside our fence when he was outside practicing with his bow the other day....course, he told me this two hours later!

It took me a moment to work out the "from underneath" POV, but now I see him. Nicely captured, under pressure. :)
