    These are indeed great woodpeckers to watch. I would like to see more detail in the dark feathers of the face and wings. Have you used "curves" on this? The red crown also appears a bit over saturated and might benefit from reducing the saturation and thus capturing more feather details. I like the intense look on this woodpecker.

    Repost looks better, a nice AW for sure. I wish the BG was not so busy. I guess I know where you made this one!
