Another Christmas in Hokkaido #3
A male Black Woodpecker at Onuma a couple of days ago. It was just before the sun went down, it is always dark or getting dark when I see them..........
The Ural Owl was in the same place..........
The lake is frozen now....only a few tiny patches of open water remain for the wintering wildfpwl......
Whooper Swan and Mallard mainly but there was the lone Pintail........
The tame tits and nuthatches were around too.
Christmas Day was cold and nasty and today (the 26th) is even worse.........I hope the weather relents by the weekend and I can get out and about.
Thanks for clicking this link.......

Great selection, Stu. Love the owl in heart-shaped tree cavity.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of birds. Those black woodys really look like they're from another world. Wish they were down here. The 7D does pretty well in low light as the pics are superb. Cold here too.
ReplyDeleteLove the Ural Owl pic! Very nice composition especially with that vine around the hole.
ReplyDeleteThose birds are really beautiful!
