I agree! It is a wonderful capture of a not so ordinary pose for one of these guys. Well done on capturing it Donny!
 
A unique woody posture! May be this guy knows the branch is too slim for it to get on top without overturning.
 
Wonderful acrobatic capture Donnie!! never have I seen our Woodys go after acorns my friend :t::t::t:
