After a year at 4 different locations and many hours of trying I finally had some luck at a 5th location.
I was at Denny Wood in the New Forest with a young friend yesterday and the great spotted woodpeckers failed to pose for us.
This is like a reversal that happened to me with the kingfisher, he got word of one half an hour drive from where we were so I decided to drive us there.
As we approached the location there were quite a few other photographers so I didn't rate my chances but it first arrived within 5 minute of us getting there.

(y) Lovely photo well done
 
Nicely exposed too, for the bird and the fish's underbelly. :)

Thanks gramps, I wasn't expecting to get it fishing so that's a bonus. The next step is to try and capture it diving.
 
Nice image. Like yourself I’ve been after a shot of a Kingfisher, and finally this year I got my first pics. It’s a great feeling when you finally achieve it. Well done you!
 
"Excellent" shot, nuff said.

George.
