Back to Familiar Haunts

(November 1st) After the trip to south Texas, the Ann Arbor locations may not be as exotic or have quite as much wildlife, but just being out in nature is rewarding. Today I walked the trails of Dolph Park with different eyes. I was eager to see if I could notice some improvements in my photography after the trip. I got some nice pictures of this Red-bellied Woodpecker and experienced a bit of deja vu. This female looks quite similar to the Golden-fronted Woodpeckers that were all over the Rio Grande Valley.
