Red-bellied Woodpecker...

This is a female Red-bellied Woodpecker. This bird was photographed this March in Florida, she stayed still long enough for me to get a few shots but she was a ways off. This was taken with the 200-400 f4 at full zoom and then cropped in. Did you know that a group of woodpeckers are called a "descent", "drumming", and "gatling" of woodpeckers.

It is Thursday already so please stop by Shane's blog for a new post.

She's a beauty! Nice complimentary background too!

Excellent shot, Brad. I didn't know about those terms. It looks like the new lens is doing a great job for you.
