Lovely shot, and what a lovely colourful bird. Are these birds ground feeders as I've seen a few pictures, and they seem to be on the ground more than the other woodpeckers.

The green woodpecker favorite food are ants, that's why they always seem to be on the ground

Ahh, you learn something new everyday!! Lovely picture :)
 
Lovely image. Lucky you, they've never stopped long enough to get a decent shot.

Excellent shot Sam, and as said they very wary birds. However, they are very common (well around here they are) so easy to spot.

Love the angle of the head, alert as ever. Whenever I have had the pleasure of their presence they whiz off in micro seconds.
 
Great photo. I'd love to see one of those.
