Green Woodpeckers Part 1

[mufftrix]

Lots and lots of hours with 4am starts and 6 hours a time cramped on a stool under a camo hide net, nettle stings and insects bites besides was well worth while

Here is a few from my first couple of weeks (fledgling to come)

1 and 5 for me, the others seem a little bit green. I admire the dedication, I struggle to get out of bed at 6.
