It had rained the night before. We went to look at the progress in harvesting the cane and then we saw him. He pecked at the tree for over an hour! We just watched him. It was our gift. And it was foggy and we couldn't see the canefield anyway.

ReplyDeleteAmazing isn't it. If we did that even once we'd have a splitting headache, but they keep at it until the split the wood. Hope you get pictures of the cane field too that would be neat to see

Sweet! Those photos are tough to come by as the birds just don't remain still for long. Nicely done...
ReplyDeleteWell, I am in Ohio and we have Downy Woodpeckers, which is what that looks like. It is definitely a Woodpecker of sorts. They are so hard to get good close up shots, but great job.
ReplyDeleteSo neat! Did you go look at the hole? How'd he do? =)
ReplyDeleteLove the photos
