Photo Sundries

I liked the contrast of the shadows on the trees. Don't care much for the poison ivy, though.

Caught this insect molting from nymph to adult. I was practicing with the extension tubes Ron gave me for Christmas because I can never seem to focus accurately - as you can tell from this picture. Still need to practice!

This poor little downy woodpecker got caught in a downpour.

This little guy enjoys visiting my bird feeder. I don't mind him sneaking a bite or two, but it looks like he's stocking up for the week!
