Ducklings, geese, ravens and Pileated Woodpeckers - oh my!
It was a fowl weather kind of day at the park today.
(Please accept my sincerest apologies for that pun, yes it was dreadful but I have no willpower, I am weak and frankly it is also pretty darn cold here still.)
Big, gaudy and attention grabbing - that bright red mohawk is hard to ignore.
Still if it weren't for the sharp eyes of my kids I might have passed right by this guy.
They often see what I don't, but I am often smart enough to point my camera at what they are looking at - so it all works out.
I've never seen one on the ground before! Nice capture.
ReplyDeletelove your red head....and i did smile at the fowl/foul pun.....:)
ReplyDeleteYou're killin' me with the fabulous bird shots!
ReplyDeleteDamned pileated woodpeckers. I used to think they were cute, but then I bought a house with cedar siding.
ReplyDeleteWow!!!
ReplyDeleteKids have amazing vision don't they? Maybe because their brains are not as crowded with mundane things as ours are. Great shot - and love his red head!
