Outstanding colours and detail, I would enjoy seeing more of his back feathers

Great image, Holger. It was really posing nicely for you. Excellent pose, colors and composition.

The Wood pecker is really striking.
I might sharpen the perch and smooth out the BG.

Never saw one of these so TFS. Love the image. The colors are striking and the composition works very well.

A stunning woodpecker and image! Love the colors of this bird and the pose is super. Not sure how long their tail is, but I might consider giving it a tad more space.

Well done, Holger.
Terrific pose and I like the position of the perch in the frame.
Love the eye and clear view of the foot.
