In flight~SOOC Sunday~051511


I spent yesterday morning watching a mother woodpecker deal with her hungry babies in a huge saguaro over by Desert Ridge Villas, in Scottsdale, AZ. Hubby decided he wanted to get out of town for the weekend, so here we are! Anyway, I was taking photos of her and when I uploaded them, I saw this one. I nearly deleted it, but then decided I liked it because it showed her in action. She was moving so quickly from the saguaro to somewhere else to get food for the hungry ones, I watched her for quite a while! What a busy mom she is! SOOC Sunday for May 15, 2011.
