As I said, the bird was drilling a maple tree in my backyard.
I took the picture from the kitchen's window almost at the same level with the woodpecker. |

That lens is modern and top quality. I'm not surprised by the sharpness. I have the F4 version and it's hard to fault.

Fantastic capture!
There was one woodpecker, years ago, that used to drill in a cherry tree on the hill behind my property.
He made such a loud sound, he used to wake me up every morning at sunrise 
But aside from that, it was lovely.
The one here was green though.

And it was much smaller, I presume.
The small ones come and go also, but everytime I was off with the camera or untill I got the camera it was too late. |
