Simple Woodpecker Click

Posted on 26th January 2016

This is a simple click to achieve the image, however getting the woodpecker in position was slightly more tricky.

While at a local nature reserve with my wife, we heard the woodpecker in the woods somewhere but had no idea where.

So taking a large stone found on the pathway we were on, I located a dead tree and started rapping out a sound not unlike that of the woodpecker.

Woodpeckers are curious to know who is in thier teritory, so he came looking for the source of the sound.

Having the camera ready and roughly focused on the tree I was rapping, it became a simple click to achieve the image.

Try it you'll be surprised.
