I love shooting birds, too, so I really appreciate a good bird photo. This is nice and sharp, with excellent bokeh. It's always nice to get a nature shot when the subject is "doing" something, and this one having a seed in its beak gives the shot lots of interest. The only nitpick I have is that the crop may be a tiny bit too tight, especially on the right, but that's just my own opinion. It's a great shot!

Willie you never secede to amaze me with you photographs. I very much like this shot. I am not about to go into all the technical aspects of how well the photograph was taken because it would be senseless. All I am going to say is amazingly beautiful! Highly enjoyable!

    Your welcome Willie.

An exquisite beautiful capture of this beautiful Woodpecker Willie. I can almost feel his feathers. An image that deserves a six which I am, at this point out of. Still, for such an image I have every confidence you will receive many from those who have been wise enough to save some. Bren

Wonderful picture Willie! I love the bright red against the soft green background! Red Bellied Woodpecker with a red head! First for me, thank you!

Comment from foureyes


Excellent sharpness, great color contrast between the red head and the green background, and I like the seed in the beak.

There's a bit of something extraneous in the lower right corner that you could clone out.

So, I think i see a house reflected in his eye, is that right?

A very nice close up! Wonderful subject. Good technique to admire the colors and feathers. Color of he background supports well the subject and the whole composition.

another one that deserves a six. really perfect profile, lovely placing of the single seed. the colour, detail and your unique bird's eye for the craft; all evident and present.
