After working for a long day, I decided to relax and take a walk in Brightwood Park. After passing the pond junction, I heard a banging noise like someone tearing down a house. Instinctively I scanned across the dense woods, and found a pileated woodpecker couple (red mustache is the ID of a male) working hard by checking up from one tree to the other for food. Aiming and focusing was quite a challenge when I tried to take photos of them. Luckily, in one of the photos I seemed to catch the moment of one bird extending the tongue to lick food from a tree. After the woodpeckers flew away, I continued my walk towards the dam. A handsome bullfrog was posing on a log and waiting for photographers. The creature allowed me to take photos from several angles, and was very calm even when I approached within 3 feet of distance. When I moved on I encountered another model, this time a cute chipmunk. The little one let me take a few shots and started to wiggle. I guess the fellow needed a bathroom break. I waved and the fellow disappeared in less than a second. Comments are closed.
