Craig Tooley saw three juvenile Acorn Woodpeckers, all demanding to be fed. He photographed one of the young woodpeckers, and then got all three lined up in a vertical row.

I've seen these young woodpeckers chase their parents around, flying from tree to tree. It must be nice for the adults when they learn to feed themselves!

Acorn woodpeckers have such a distinctive call. You can hear it at this link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Acorn_Woodpecker/sounds

Thanks to Craig for allowing me to share his photos with you here. To see much more of Craig's nature photography, here is the link to his website: http://www.ruffimage.com

This morning was clear and calm, but the wind picked up in the afternoon. Temps are nice and mild.
