The bad weather here has given me cabin fever so last night I looked through my archives and enjoyed some images from brighter, warmer days. I came across this juvenile Red-naped Sapsucker image from my first camping trip to Utah’s high Uintas<\/span><\/a> in Summit County.<\/p>\n

\"JuvenileJuvenile Red-naped Sapsucker in Summit County – Nikon D200, tripod mounted, f6.3, 1\/640, ISO 320, -0.7 EV, Nikkor 200-400mm VR with 1.4x TC at 400mm, natural light, not baited<\/span><\/p>\n

The campsite was in a wooded area that felt peaceful, had a view of the Bear River and through the trees I could see mountain tops and fluffy clouds. The air was cool in the mornings but warm in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

This juvenile Red-naped Sapsucker was busy foraging for insects on several trees at the camp site one day and came quite close at times. It was a lifer bird for me to photograph and even now I get excited about that.<\/p>\n

I’m not<\/em> excited by the weather outside which is cloudy and wet once again. I’m thinking of\u00a0spring, more birds and camping this morning.<\/p>\n
