Red-Bellied Woodpecker

Andy | Friday, June 05, 2015 | Best Blogger Tips

I don't usually take photos of birds. I just do not have the lens needed to take good photos.
With this shot I got lucky with my Canon 18-200mm.

    Very nice done, you can see every detail of the bird. He has a lot of wood to pick yet.

    Wow still a very good birdshot. It looks like it is not necessary to have a big 600mm to get a great one. Very well done Andy.

    Lucky indeed. I get few bird shots for the same reason - plus a lack of patience!

    Wonderful photo with great detail and composition. The slanted tree trunk is a perfect perch for the bird!

    Great shot. I agree that a telephoto in the 400mm range is needed for even a rudimentary focus.

    A beautiful photo. Birds are frustrating to photograph. I'm not willing to spend my retirement funds on a lens :-o

    Not sure how they got this name as their bellies are white, not red. But of course the name redheaded woodpecker was already taken. Great shot.

    Very successful dart. When you rarely take pictures of birds, so success will bring great joy.
