This is one of the 3 Red-Bellied Woodpecker that frequent my feeders at home. One of my favorite birds to shoot! I feel the contrast of colors make the bird very appealing. Took this shot while playing cars with my kids!

The comp is good as is the exposure. The detail on the woodpecker seems soft even in the larger view. Looks as if it could use some additional sharpening.
