Alone


This downy woodpecker wasn't actually alone in the shot above -- but I cropped it
because I wanted to use the one below as "alone" and I wanted to show him going after
the seeds as well as taking flight with one.

Beautiful shots! I really like the one of him in flight also. What a privilege to be able to see and shoot so close!

These are great - I especially like the second one. If you could increase the contrast on the bird, and not on anything else in the picture (using whatever editing program you have) I think that would make it 'pop' a bit more.
