#300 Little carpenter

2009.10.27



[Dendrocopos minor - Lesser Spotted Woodpecker. La Herrería Forest, El Escorial - Madrid]

At the same time I was taking some pictures to the wonderful blue tit, my husband was hiding this little carpenter.
I came in time of capturing it with my camera, although tht photos are not as good as I would like. These birds are very shy, so I had no time to fix the right parameters in my camera. LOL!

SADHYA These are also in UK but I have never seen one. As you say, they are very shy. Congratulations on these shots.

girafferacing You did well to capture these shots - it's so hard when birds move so quickly. Perhaps he'll return sometime when you have your camera set up ready! :-)

eternity65 ooooh great set, we have them here too, but they have a green back, white front and that red on the head, but i haven't been able to shoot them yet, they either hide among the leaves, or fly past to quickly :-(
