Captured this sweet Downy with the canon 70-300 IS USM lens at a focal length of 300mm, and shot through a closed window. I find that they do not scare off as easily using the closed window trick.

But as the weather warms up, hopefully I can again shoot out the open window, and not scare them! :)

Thank you for commenting my friends.

Seems you do well enough through the window, Tigs. If it's clean, it's just another filter is all. Excellent color.

Nice one Sandi...Why don't you try that lens with the converter..If the weather is bright and you stop up to f/5 you may get auto focus..Even manual focus will give you auto confirm.."The Beep"....R.

Clarity throughout makes this a gorgeous shot Tigz. How often do you clean your windows to keep it this clear? Mine would have the grandsons thumb print of approval.

It is hard for me to believe that you get such great captures through a closed window. Very well done.

A marvelous shot, Sandi! Beautiful bokeh, gorgeous colors, and excellent composition. Very nice depth of field, as well. It looks like that lens does a great job, and I can't tell that this shot was taken through the window. Well done!

May I ask if you used fill flash? I'm wondering how you got the lighting so vivid and perfect.

And how did you shoot through a closed window and get such a quality picture? There's no sign of it at all!

These woodpeckers are a very nervous bunch of birds! Your trick seems to work pretty dang good to get a shot like this. He does look like he is about ready to take off though;) Great clear shot.

Closed window works always Sandi - and so do white clothes, I have noticed. Lovely shot of the bird with good clarity.
