con Nikon TC-20E III, 1/500 f/5.6, ISO 800, hand held. Parque Nacional del Este, Dominican Republic. Specie: Melanerpes striatus

Il picchio di Hispaniola (Melanerpes striatus) è un picchio di media taglia, endemico dell'isola Caraibica di Hispaniola (che attualmente ospita le nazioni di Haiti e della Repubblica Dominicana). La schiena di questi volatili è coperta da strisce gialle e nere. I maschi si riconoscono per la presenza di una striscia rosso scuro che va dalla fronte sino al collo mentre nelle femmine la striscia rossa è più contenuta e si estende solo dalla nuca al collo. La coda è nera con una base rosso brillante mentre il sovracoda è grigio-verde. A differenza della maggior parte dei picchi, i picchi di Hispaniola sono animali particolarmente sociali e traggono vantaggio dal vivere in colonie molto numerose di adulti che proteggono i nidi, solitamente scavati nei tronchi di palma. Il loro habitat, ristretto ad Haiti e alla Repubblica Dominicana, si estende dalle zone costiere sino a quelle desertiche e montane all'interno dell'isola. #wild

“ live in the colonies between them is very special „

Dear Richard, this thing has hit me .. considering that I counted at least 8 pairs (but I think they were more) on palm trees over 50 meters ...Wow Wow!

“ PS: 70-200 multiplied ....... you like to win easy huh?!? „

Alex .. 400mm are the minimum for this type of bird ... unfortunately I could take with me the heavy artillery: -D: -D
