A triple exposure. Same position in the forest as with the previous upload. As mentioned the hole in the old alder can be seen through other alders. The peak hole is amazing. Focused on 3 different trees and combined the three RAW files in Photoshop.
Background story:
For three years I have been having Grey-headed Woodpeckers (Picus canus) at my feeder during the winter. For the last 2 summers I have also tried to find their nest. Without success. It is of course not a super common bird species in Finland, so should in practice be happy just to see and photograph them... and I am.
However, a week or three ago I did see them going crazy on an old tree and I was just hoping... “what if...” Been back a few times and I often see the male in the hole... and what an angle. Perfect view through a few majestic old alder trees... Happy Days!
