Encounters

I just love it when I have encounters in nature with animals that come so close that you swear it's like they are trying to tell you something (and maybe they are). It even nicer when you see a new new animal species in nature for the first time.

Since we moved to this house almost 3 years ago we have had the pleasure to have many visitors (mostly birds) in our back porch, this weekend was not an exception, for the first time since we've lived here we had to pleasure to see a Northern Flicker, isn't it beautiful?


Of course I had to run to get my camera to get a shot, and yeah I got one, but this...


Don't you just love it when you take a picture and you were genius enough to have everything but the main object well focused, I know I do! LOL

Have a wonderful week... I will be keeping an eye for "Flicker" and hope to get a much better shot to post later.

    How exciting!! All winter I tried to catch a rare bird on my camera (no luck), so I know exactly what you're talking about, LOL. But I'm sure this handsome fella will be back :-)

    What a beautiful bird! We can still see how much it resembles the picture you provided. He looks huge, how big is it?
