Theme: Red-bellied Woodpecker.

I was lucky one day as it was coming to the baited perch but has not returned since.
Thanks for looking.

Like this comp quite a bit, the way you have it coming out of the left bottom. I have no problem with him looking away b/c it shows her off so well. Lots of details and even the tongue is visible. Are your red-bellied WPs this gray ? I think the whites esp in the black back feathers are looking greyish instead of white.

The colors look good to me. There are some left-overs of a cloning job, I think, in and around the bill?

Love the details in nice light here. I agree with Maria on the pose, it works for me. Those dots under his eye are super, looks like a tattoo.
