    It's a downy woodpecker.

    Nice crisp shot there. What's with the title though - a regional phrase?

    Odd for me because I've heard the word "monkey" used three times this week for non-monkeys. One was by our neighbor who has a cat and they named it, monkey.

    What's a Loupe for anyway?

    My initial impression of the woodpecker's pose and position on the feeder.

    A monkey on monkey bars.

    That was what I first thought when I looked. Great title (and very great shot)! The super shallow DOF really makes it.
