A striking image of a Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) captured mid-pose as it clings to a weathered, dead tree trunk. The bird’s vivid black-and-white plumage, accented with red under-tail coverts, contrasts beautifully against a seamless blue sky. The detailed textures of the decaying wood provide a natural, rugged backdrop that highlights the woodpecker’s form and behavior. Shot in natural daylight with precise exposure, the composition emphasizes verticality and draws the viewer’s eye upward along the bird’s gaze.
