On the hike up to the Base of the Towers, one may have unexpected encounters. For instance, the sound of a female Magellanic woodpecker may force you to shift your attention from a challenging trail to her lovely presence. I have this strange feeling that she is fully aware of her own beauty. She poses for my camera, knowing that many more people are going to admire her with this image.
