Well folks, can you guess what I've been doing for the last 2 days - take a look at that background. If you guessed I've been shovelling you are right. We had a terrible snow storm yesterday with strong winds and lots of the white s#*t.

Any way I captured this image of Mr Hairy Woodpecker at the suet feeder this morning, Good Friday (2016, 03-25). We were having our morning coffee in the living room before I went out to do my favorite winter activity, shovel, lol.

I used Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 to bring out more detail also cropped it some due to the wind blowing the feeder, then with iPiccy.com> to make it smaller.

Thank you for your Comments in Advance and take care and enjoy Good Friday

Mr. Woodpecker doesn't seem too pleased with all that fresh white stuff either. At least he has you to keep him going until the "real" spring arrives.

Mr. Woodpecker is fueling up on that suet and most likely doesn't know that you are taking his picture - Great Capture Pat!!!:-):-):-)!!!

I saw one of these when I was visiting my mom at the Nursing Home today Skates. Unfortunately I didn't get a photo.
This is really good.

Happy Easter

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Nice and clear shot of the woodpecker hanging on and helping himself. Pity that you got another bash of heavy snow.

I saw that storm coming your way Pat - - it missed us by going into Wisconsin we only got a dusting. Sorry about that - this is excellent and nice and sharp.

I echo Toms comment above and find it hard to believe you've still got snow. Anyway Skates it's gotta disappear soon!

It's time to dump the snow for crying out loud. The rest of us are basking in 70-80 degrees. Great capture of the bird.

Pat - So sorry about the white stuff that came through. It is good that you have the feeders, as the birds would be very hungry with the food now covered by the snow.
