Hairy Woodpecker and Carolina Wren: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, January 2026 \u2014 Temperatures in the single digits all day and 16 inches of new snow on the ground make for lots of activity at the feeders. And a bit of unusual activity. Neither of these birds is frequent at the mealworms (though the wren loves to pick up the crumbs under the feeder), and to have both at the feeder at the same time is very rare. I took lots of photos, in an attempt to catch both birds in attractive poses in a single frame, but most of the time one or the other had its beak buried in the mealworm port. This is, in the end, two shots composited in Pixomatic. Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 at 450mm equivalent field of view. Program with bird and wildlife modifications. Processed in Photomator and Pixomatic. <\/p>\n
