Camera Critters #285

The other day I went into my kitchen to pour myself a cup of coffee.  As I stood there, blurry-eyed and all, I noticed movement outside on the apple tree.  Looking up, I saw a critter crawling around the bigger branches.

 The critter was a female Downy Woodpecker.

They are fun to watch, because they are usually so busy and moving around quickly (which makes them hard to photograph too). Great shot!
