Some time back I mentioned we'd had the chance to photograph this cutie in Mexico last May, and someone requested that I post a photo. I know the bright spots will bother some, but it's the best shot I have of one of these guys.
Here, on the last evening of the trip, as the light faded, I "went out to finish off a roll of film" but took the digital along, "just in case." I was shooting the GF Woodpecker nesting in the opposite side of this tree trunk, when I saw the FPO (which we had photogrpahed earlier in daylight) leave her nest and land in the tree behind it. Canon D30, 500 f/4 IS, 2x TC. ISO setting 800, f/8 at 1/125s. Flash at -1 2/3 -- which I notice was enough to blow out the closest white patch. Oh, well. I filled up a 1G Sandisc every day on that trip. Lillian Roberts
