Supermodel : Grey & Buff Woodpecker

10th April 2010, Kemensah, Selangor

 

It was as if he knew that we were shooting his pictures so  it didn’t take long for him to put up his best performance. Remaining on the leafless tree for almost 20 minute he posed  from all   sorts of angles. Actually he was knocking away and moving up and down  looking for insect larvae, we saw him pull a couple from the  holes and crevices in the tree. This is  a male with a beautiful red forecrown.
