It's not usual for us in Maryland to see Ruddy Ducks in breeding colors so this was a nice surprise.

Having been looking to get a decent capture of a Woodpecker for the last year without success, I was on a conference call as I worked from home and noticed this beauty sat on my garden fence. Mute button pushed, I grabbed my camera and got this quick snap before it moved on. I do need to brush up on my photo presentation skills but with images like this I don't mind learning. I am thinking of getting Photoshop, is that a good application for a novice?
