There's been a woodpecker that's lived close to our house
for a while now, and as spring is here, he's out and about, making noise. It's often hard to see woodpeckers, even if
you can hear them, but today I managed to capture him with the D90 and Nikkor
80-200mm f2.8 with a Nikkor TC 20II tele converter. This shot is going to win exactly no prizes
in the next National Geographic competition, but it was good to see him and get
a shot in. This shot is a very serious
crop of the original.
While I had the camera out I shot a few other small birds,
with similar results.
It's for these sorts
of shots that it is nice to have a long lens around, even if it doesn't get a
ton of use.
