My turn to stalk....

the woodpecker!
He only visits on the weekend. 
I'm thinking he has to live closer to his job.
And visits our yard as a weekend retreat.

I've been practicing my ninja stealth moves on crunchy leaves.
And it appears that I did pretty good.
Used my18- 275 lens - totally out. And you can see his beady little eyes.

He's quite noisy and tenacious.
He's also very skittish.
He also decided it was time for us to get up this a.m. by banging on the flashing of our house.
Rotten bird.

Wow, what terrific photos! (Those woodpeckers are pesky though, aren't they? Such noisy little stinkers!)

Great photos! We have at least one here too. I don't like that they peck at the flashing and wake us up on the weekends.
