Very nice capture of the sapsucker, Harold. Like the yellow bellied variety we have here, they're colorful and really attractive looking birds.. and you've captured that so well here.

Great capture of the bird Harold. Like the elongated pose he shows. Appreciate all the place you gave to the hydro pole. in the foreground. It forces the eye to look at the bird wich is very nicely captured.

I like your depth of field used Harold, the sapsucker jumps off the background and the bird has lots of feather detail. Nicely captured.

Cool, Harold. We have yellow bellied sapsuckers here. What a diverse country we have, eh?
