Is it bad luck to photograph under a ladder? Trail #3 through Rocky Hollow requires going up (or down) three ladders.

This is a better photography of the this species than the one I had previously posted. The previous post was Bird Species (# 30) that I photographed and placed on my Flickr Photostream. Overall goal is 1000.

I continue to be a fan of woodpeckers, and I continue to chase these fascinating birds around, trying to get satisfying photos of each species. I have a few species to go, and I have several better photos to go, too.

I first captured the LBWP a few years ago in Arizona, but I wasn't satisfied, so I kept after this guy when in Texas this year. Surprisingly hard to get a good photo of the LBWP. I had a few shots on tree trunks that were fine, but none of them shined. This shot is a little different. Conditions were a bit dark because of dissipating rain. The bird's beak is open because the temperatures and humidity were high. I try to avoid shots during heat when the birds are essentially panting like dogs, but this is the shot I like best for now.

As with all bird photography, the hunt continues. A better shot is always out there.

The Ladder-backed Woodpecker: daily gazebo inspections, tapping concerts on request, and complimentary holes with every visit.

The male is now using the feeder. Sometimes both are there at the same time.

Jacob's Ladder is one of the most iconic alpine roads in Australia. In icy wintery conditions it is almost impassable. But it sure is fun to drive up and down.

Take an old wooden ladder and just add light...

"Stay on the path" said they.

"Humbug" said I. "If I did that, I wouldn't have gotten this shot".
