Terrific capture of the Pileated Woodpecker, Paul! Are these woodpeckers uncommon in your area?

Great Blue Jay capture, Bill! This guy looks just a bit unsure about jumping in for a bath. :-)

Beautiful capture, Mike! Was this an overcast day or how did you get this clear background?

Thank you very much, Ulrike. We've been having spotty cloud cover almost constantly. So often a cloud is directly behind the subject...hence, the white background I so often come up with.

Many thanks Mike.
The Pileated are quite common in these parts.
The Red Headed Woodpecker's the one that's elusive and is an uncommon sighting.

A pair of Rainbow Lorikeets and a lone Scaly-breasted Lorikeet taken at the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary.

These wild birds are fed each morning by the wardens.
