What a wonderful picture you've taken of this woodpecker Xyko - a great start to the year too!!!

I think this is a clearer picture than the one currently in The Opus, so I'll upload it to the article shortly.

Many thanks for sharing it with us my friend - Happy New Year to you and your family.

You've made the most out of having to shoot up the tree, and the perspective works really well for this image. One can see how the bird's tail is required to allow it to cling to the bark, and also how powerful its feet are. Well done.
