    Cameras and Equipment

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Default Juvenile Woodpeckers

    I say woodpeckers because I have two visiting which is one up on last year. As you can see from my pics they don't always get on. They were quite far up the garden and the weather was dull, hope to get some better pics if the sun comes out later

    i'd love to see your ''better'' pictures, babs, if these are poor!!!! these are grrrreat!!!! iv'e been watching a woodpeckers nest this week, as i've been out with my dog. i have stood directly under the tree and waited for the parents to come to and fro. they can see my dog, holly mooching about below them but still come to the nest. the chicks call continuously from inside the nest cavity.
