Above, a Pileated Woodpecker peers out of a cavity in a tree trunk.
Although not nervous enough to fly off, he keeps an eye on me as he forages nearby:

A tiny Pacific Wren keeps to the shadows in the undergrowth:

Other beings besides trees and birds exist here:

Moss coats many limbs and trunks:

Following the sound of tapping leads to a Hairy Woodpecker:

A Brown Creeper forages alone in another spot:

Otherwise, it’s quiet:

Atop a high ridge there is more space for the sun:

Thanks for visiting, and may you be happy and at ease.

Nice shots! I see different woodpeckers all the time. Hard to get a shot of them peaking out of a hole. Many times there are branches or leaves in front.

Thank you! I agree they can be tough to photograph for the reasons you mention, and because it’s often dimly lit in the forest.
