Sapsucker At Breakfast


Sapsucker At Breakfast
Originally uploaded by King Cnut.

I was up at dawn and was able to get this red-naped sapsucker in perpendicular lighting.

Frost was coating everything this morning. And it was spiked. It made every plant look like a cactus, riddled with spines.

Great photo!! That looks like it should be in National Geographic. What the hell were you doing up at dawn?!

Thanks Tom!
What was I doing? Thawing the water tank, cleaning the grounds and wrecking my back moving bags of stucco. And there was a brief intermission to take a photo of this bird.
