Today was one of those photography days where a little foresight would have been a good thing. I caught a glimpse of this pileated woodpecker flying overhead and immediately turned and started moving in the direction of the wooded area I saw it go towards.
Normally, that's not an issue... but by the time I spotted him again it was starting to dawn on me that I was knee deep in snow... and I had to go back to work this afternoon.
But I got the shot; and in hindsight, I'd probably do the same thing because I really like the way this turned out and at least spending three hours in soaking wet jeans wasn't for nothing!
Hope everyone has had a good day.
