Near Threatened - Red-headed Woodpecker

How sad that we, as supposed intelligent beings, continue to create a world that doesn't always
support, arguably more beautiful, and certainly "as worthy" inhabitants of this precious planet.

Agree...funnily enough, I was on the RSPB website this evening and was really shocked by how many of the UK's indigenous birds are 'red listed' ie. they're in serious danger of dying out. Criminal.

Great catch with the diagonal and this pose. Totally agree with you. Our obsession with "growth" really needs to be re-thought. "V"

Absolutely! I agree wholly. It is so sad that these beautiful birds are in trouble. Here in Ontario they are a species at risk. There was a time when I used to see these on a fairly regular basis, but now they are known from only a couple of locations.
