A Lovely, Regular, Garden Visitor

This handsome chap was flitting around in the trees and I tried really hard to get a photo of him in a more natural setting. I failed! It was so much easier to get a good shot when he finally settled on the nut feeder.

Lovely shot of a lovely bird.

They often hop around or put a branch between you and them when they are in the trees. Often a man made feeder is a better option to get a clear shot.

But you got a lovely shot all the same, Sue! Your soft green background shows him off really well. By the way, we have a bird like this: a Downy Woodpecker (and a larger Hairy Woodpecker). What do you call yours?
