I think this is the largest Downy Woodpecker I have photographed. It is always hard to judge size in a photo but when i saw this one I was surprised.

I love the light and shadows in this photo. The Downy Woodpecker was all over this tree and I was thankful to get this capture. Beautiful.

This Downy Woodpecker was going to town on this tree. He didn't even notice us below him. I guess this was his project for the day.

It was sure great to see a Downy Woodpecker. The woodpeckers were more active this week. In fact, on the more sunny days the birds were more active in general.

Teresa captured this photo of this male Downy Woodpecker while hiking earlier this week. Now that the weather is mild and temperatures on increasing we are seeing less of them. This one is not climbing a big tree.
