Knock on Wood

The nature preserve I’ve been photographing at for many years has some shelters here and there, mostly with informational signs. One afternoon, a bored or desperately hungry red-bellied woodpecker really hoped that it might be able to score some tasty insects in those shingles. I was impressed with how it squeezed itself in there. Delicate yet determined.
