Juvenile Great Spotted Woodpecker, Dendrocopos major

A Juvenile Great Spotted Woodpecker, Dendrocopos major that visits my garden. I think I need to move back a bit so I can get the complete bird in the frame, That's a cheaper option than buying a new lens

Very colorful woodpecker - I'd love to see a fully mature specimen. The last image does a good job of displaying the whole bird so you don't need a new lens yet

Moving back further to get all of the bird might be the most sensible choice, but it's not the most fun choice!

Woodpeckers are one of my favorite birds, though I rarely get to see them. Hopefully when I get to Minnesota for fall colors I will be able to spot some.
