      Cheers Warren, glad you liked the Woodpecker shots, wanted some more 'natural' ones, just need to keep plugging away! Will look out for your garden shots.

    Your Great Spotted WOodpecker must have stayed round for quite a while. I hope ours comes back soon. I also really love your Wax Wing pictures.

    From Findlay

      Thanks Findlay, the Woodpeckers are really shy, I have feeders in my back garden with branches placed around them to get more natural photos, but they are very nervous when they land and the slightest movement normally scares them off, but with a little patience I am starting to get the photos, just need them to hang around more on the branches. Glad you liked the waxwings, they are beautiful birds, sadly we didn't get many over here last winter, hopefully we will this coming one!!
