    Not really a reflection just a couple of female flickers.

    Usually you don't manage to see two birds opposite each other like that. Did you have to wait long before they positioned themselves like that? Again you've really impressed me Kildale. :-D

    I just had a funny thought that maybe that each didn't know that the other was there :D
    Great photo Kildale! Glad to see a photo from you today.

    What a great photo Kildale! And a good title. I wonder if they take turns pecking? Or do it in unison? Maybe a jazz beat....

    Great picture, Kildale. You must have your camera with you at all times plus be very observant to spot the birds and animals that you capture on film. The coloring of the birds are almost identical to the dead tree and most people would not have noticed them.

    Thank you for the posts, seeds and patches. Always have a camera handy that's my motto.

    Another excellent photo Kildale! Wonder if they thought they were looking in a mirror? :stew2:
