game_boy Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Very surprised to see this woodpecker in the garden today....very rare. Can usually hear the critters pecking away in the woods but have never seen one this close from the kitchen window. Looks like a youngster maybe? Another angle.

caeser Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 It's the Lesser spotted Woodpecker, as you probably already know, they're not very big anyway. I do see them quite a bit in Yorkshire, flitting between tree's , with their undulating flight, but it must be great to see one in the back garden.

karpman Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 It's a juvenile great spotted in my honest opinion. Nice to have around Karpman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
