Adaptation

Yesterday as I was looking out of the bedroom window I saw a little head poking out of a hole in a cactus just outside.  So I grabbed my camera and tried to get some photos of a woodpecker living there.  At first it was shy as it would duck inside each time I pointed the camera in its direction, but after a short time it almost seem to be posing for me. 

I have always been amazed the way animals are able to adapted to the environment around them.  Here in the southwest desert of Arizona there are very few trees so these little creatures make there homes in cacti.  Take a look!
