Yeah, a bit of the romance is lost when you remember the weasel is trying to eat it.

Great shot where just the picture is important!
Great work getting it in focus especially if wasn't set up for that type of high speed stuff

Once in a lifetime photo. Poor woodpecker

Apparently the Woodpecker escaped unharmed

Amazing. I can honestly say that's something I never imagined seeing my entire life!!

It makes you wonder what other animals are sneaking rides on backs (lol)

That's the one that the photographer caught!!

Harry Hill would have a field day with this!
