    That's a lovely woodpecker. I enjoy them very much when they come into my garden.

    I love watching woodpeckers when they come about around me. They're curious birds and always fascinating to view their special skills of survival. Well done. [is that moss on the tree?]

    Your linking of your special photos of birds is always appreciated, as you know.

    That's a new one for me. I've never seen a Hairy Woodpecker before. Good shots.

    I really like this shot with the scruffy tree included. I enjoy watching woodpeckers. We have a Hairy Woodpecker who stops by to visit our suet blocks.

    thanks everyone. Glad you liked it.

    Anni, I think it is moss. I took the pic in the high altitude rainforet.

I love comments so please write something. I usually responds to everyone on their own blogs. But nowadays I often find it impossible to comment on many blogs or on Google+. Often the word verifications is unreadable. And after three times I give up. Other times the systems seems to think I am a spammer. Lots of bloggers loose comments that way. :( So, if you don´t see me comment on your blog that is the reason.
