Bird Watching Highlight: Downy Woodpecker (Original Photos)

in #photography5 years ago

The Downy Woodpecker photographs are some of the highlights from my Project FeederWatch report for 24-25 November 2018.

Downy Woodpecker

This is one of my favorite pictures because of the way the tree seems to frame the Downy Woodpecker.

Many birds tried to get to the peanuts in this spherical feeder, but the Downy Woodpecker was the most successful at eating the peanuts in this feeder.
