Got an Umbrella?

By Lillian  
At least pass the towel over..soap?
no thanks !

Woodpecker really getting wet in that downpour
us staying dry in the hide..he tried hiding under this branch

Best Viewed Large.

Never put off going to photograph wildlife
just because it's wet!... it's all about atmosphere


My thanks for all the awards and comments
on the two woodpeckers
... taken at Millers Wood
back there this weekend with Ade if interested in joining us?

Lillian

Wonderful shot of this Woodpecker under the stump.
I think it should have taken cover a little quicker under the umbrella perhaps he might have kept drier.
