     Downy Woodpecker – Magee Marsh, Ohio:  While there were a lot of Neotropical migrants moving through Magee Marsh, there were also other species moving around the marsh as well.  This Downy Woodpecker happened to stop at a snag that had a perfect uncluttered blue sky background.  After pecking on the snag for a minute or so, the downy began stretching its wings, giving me the opportunity to shoot some great action behavior.
