Pileated Woodpecker shot is great ! Its on my list. Quite a few around here but always seem to be on the other side of tree if you know what I mean. Nice work !

What rich diversity! Dream of seeing these critters! The red-belly woodpecker shot is great! Some of the background elements threw couple of them off....just luck. Like first one of owl too. Is this same habitat as where you snakes and gators? Is this a zoo?

Yes same place. Lettuce Lake Park in Tampa and not a zoo. They have a board walk that goes along the lakes edge and through some swamps. Lots to shoot but tough shooting situations.
