Been uploading quite a few images of Black Woodpeckers (Dryocopus Martius) close to their nest. Most taken with a 500mm lens and converted into B&W as that was something I have had in my mind for some time. And one taken with a 70-200mm lens at 75mm, placed under the tree using a wireless remote control to get a bit of a canopy effect. Some images OK, some good, some fantastic!

This is now pretty much the end of the 'project' and this will thus be one of the last shots. And on request... in color... Taken with 500mm lens + 2x extender, a respectable 1000mm. f8. Unfortunately, not extremely sharp.

Special thanks to Martti for taking me to the place. Muchos kiitos.
