Downy Woodpeckers
p.1 #1Downy Woodpeckers
New to wildlife/nature after a 2 year photography hiatus and had the opportunity to capture these beautiful birds.
Not sure of the best way to upload photos as I had to export for smaller file sizes.

I very much enjoyed watching them. Wish I had a longer lens, but I’m quite happy with how these photos turned out.

I’ve never been able to get a clear shot of a downy. The ones around me are so jumpy or they prefer staying high up in the trees.

I have the same thing happening with Cardinals. They just zoom around before I can get a clear shot.
