Re: PESO: Goldentailed Woodpecker
Thanks, Larry. It sure was. Ended up with a whole lot of purple fringing. This was the best of 10. We commonly get two species here - this one & the smaller Cardinal. More often heard than seen. We will be going into the Kruger Park on Sunday for the first time this year. Alan C.

PESO: Goldentailed Woodpecker
Awakened my slumbering camera today. The birds seem to think it is spring already but they are almost certainly in for a surprise. Captured this Goldentailed Woodpecker at work in deep shade on my Oak Tree (Quercus Robustus) this morning. It managed to hammer all the bark off a dead branch in its quest for a snack. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wisselstroom/53083730740/ K5 & HD 55-300 @300mm, f5.8, ISO320.
