<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This was the scene just a month ago. The majority of our street signs have at least one active woodpecker nest. This spring the one by our home had a Hairy Woodpecker nest. Setting up the D4<\/a> \/ 80-400<\/a> as a remote, I fired the rig with a Pocket Wizard<\/a>. With the street sign being right on a corner, standing there behind the camera just wasn’t a wise thing to do. So from across the block I watched with bins and clicked as the parents came in to feed. They fledged two kids, a male and female.<\/p>\n So while having breakfast on the deck, one of the kids that just fledged dropped by our feeder. Still shooting with the D4<\/a> \/ 800<\/a>, it was fun to see the youngster. Now I’m not really thrilled with the lighting on the lower half of the branch, but I do like having one more click in the kid’s life. One of the cool things is, this kid is like generation 13 or 14 to come to our feeders. Their parents bring them so they are very use to our just doing our thing. Unlike the Band-tails, we can walk up to the window just a foot away from them and they don’t even bother to look at us. So once this kid has all its feathers all popped, it will be a great subject!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This was the scene just a month ago.
