Stephen > This downy woodpecker was just taking its own sweet time working the limb trying to find insects to prey upon.  Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
Stephen > The one thing I love about downy woodpeckers is that once they start pecking around for insects they seem oblivious to the world.  I must have watched this male for about 15 minutes.  Then I left to him to his tree.  Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
Stephen > Downy woodpecker from the pasture next to my house.  He was in a large, tall tree just pecking away.  Midlothian, Texas, March 2008
Stephen > This male downy woodpecker was photographed in harsh afternoon, almost sunset, light.  Midlothian, Texas, December 2006.
Stephen > This is an image of a male downy woodpecker that I observed digging for insects in the bark of this tree.  The weather was extremely overcast and I really needed a flash for this shot, but I did not have my flash with me.  So, here he is, underexposed and all, but still a serviceable photograph at least for documentary purposes.  Midlothian, Texas, January 2007.
