Observed in Ridgefield, CT, this original oil painting captures a fleeting moment as an adorable Downy Woodpecker alighted onto a woodland stump. The composition focuses on the rich optics of late-day light, documenting the precise moment fading evening sunlight peeked through a dense stand of rhododendrons to brilliantly catch the translucent outer edges of the bird's feathers.

This lovely Downy Woodpecker was flitting about in the sun while taking turns with a plethora of other birds—each waiting for their turn at the suet. The downy plumage caught the golden light in the most glorious way!
