The Cutest male Downy Woodpecker. (Picoides pubescens)

..

..

-------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------

🌳 See also www.flickr.com/clixofnature🐦

...

..

What they eat: Males and females search for food in different areas. Males prefer smaller branches and like being higher up in the trees, while females look for food in middle or lower areas of the tree. They eat bugs that live in trees. That is why woodpeckers peck holes in the trees so they can get the destructive bugs called wood boring larvae. The Downy Woodpecker is a great help to our ecosystem because they feed off of the destructive insects that hurt trees.

..

..

Life Cycle: It takes less than 1 year for a Downy Woodpecker to be ready to have babies. In the spring and early summer is when they start having babies. Each egg takes 12 days to hatch and they stay with their parents for about a month. Each nest usually has 4-5 eggs. (Naturemappingfoundation.org)

Another from the Utah archives. These birds are fast! It takes many chances and a decent amount of time devoted to Kestrels in order to make one or two good images.

There were so many honeycreepers around this banana feeder that they kept knocking each other off. The birds would hover around the feeder waiting their turn for more.

Connecticut Warbler - Michigan

This has to be one of the toughest warblers to photograph. In general it doesn't live where people live (northern remote bogs) and the bogs are difficult to enter, and even if you do, they are a tangled mess filled with more mosquitoes than you have ever seen in your life!

Saw-whet Stare

This little guy was very comfortable in the cluster of branches in this tree. He is looking down at me because the only way I could photograph the owl was to lay on my back in the mud. Guess an extension tube or shorter lens is in order...
