This Pileated Woodpecker is in a hole about 20 feet up the tree.... Nikkor 200-400MM F4 lens with a 1.4X t.c. 480mm @ F7.1 Iso 400 1/1250 sec Hand held.......
Lovely looking bird and image thereof Eric. I like the colours and pose. Perhaps a slight CCW rotation to get the tree up straight:confused:
Pose and raised crest look very good. Negative EC might have helped with the highlights and I might also try to get more details in the blacks. A lower angle would have made it even stronger.
Love the pose with the intense look and showing the leg(s).
