Hello,
Not sure of the exact translation in English, but you will correct if needed This great black woodpecker was feeding her cubs. Two this year, the male was around and also feeding when needed.

Nice. Where was this taken?

 

[Roybon]

Thanks
In the French Alps.
Not 100% sure, but I don't think they are present in North America.

 

[Woody Meristem]

Good catch. They're not native to North America, but we have a similar bird, the pileated woodpecker that has some white on the head and neck. Most of us would call the young ones nestlings or chicks until they leave the nest.

Super! Body like a pileated pecker

Nice capture of what life is all about.

 

[Roybon]

Thank you all for your kind word
I was wondering if there is any forum section for new comer presentation, I'm unsure where to post a short introduction.

So cool... love the behavior you've captured and the introduction to a species that I did not know existed.
lovely!
