I saw a bunch of woodpecker holes in dead trees on a trail in Los Angeles and decided to wait to see if one would come. I only had to wait about 20 minutes before they started showing up but most of them were too far away. This shot of a baby acorn woodpecker came about an 1 hour later just as I was giving up, so happy I got this one!
