Hairy Woodpecker
A huge leap from tropical rainforest images to winter photos taken yesterday afternoon, 3 February 2018. The day before yesterday brought such bad weather, very cold and snow falling all day long. By yesterday afternoon, the snow had stopped and I decided to join five friends for an enjoyable walk in Fish Creek Park. With no wind and a temperature of -9C to -7C, it was comparatively pleasant. About 45 minutes into our walk, the snow returned, falling in light, fluffy clusters.
We saw more bird species than we were expecting (list of 16 species added to a comment box below), including this Hairy Woodpecker and the Boreal Chickadee in the next photo. The Boreal photo was not cropped to look like that - I just almost missed getting it at all. I so rarely get to take photos of these small birds so, despite the strange composition, I was happy to get it.
A stop at Tim Horton's for coffee after the two-hour walk was just what was needed. Always so enjoyable to sit and chat and warm up after a cold walk. Thanks, Janet and Bernie!
