I walked outside this afternoon, hoping to steal a few moments to take some butterfly pictures in the front yard. These two lovelies seemed more than happy to flutter about for my lens.
I had only managed to fire off a few shots when I heard quite a ruckus rising up from beyond the backyard fence. Glancing that direction, I saw the beautiful Red-headed Woodpecker feeding its baby in the tree-tops.
I was too far away to capture a clear image, but it was still fun to watch the action take place. Baby birds put up quite a fuss, but they are fascinating to watch.

I have enjoyed your photos for some time now. I am amazed how beautiful they are .
Thank you for the kind words – they made me smile. 🙂
Baby birds put up just as much of a noise when they’re hungry as baby people do, and it certainly gets the parents attention in both cases!
Right you are!
Wonderful photos! It’s quite rare to see woodpeckers where we are, so enjoyed your post.
Thank you! It is always nice to hear that someone enjoys seeing the photos since I so enjoy sharing them. 🙂
How did you get those photos? Absolutely amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Right place at the right time. 🙂
