GSW in my local wood

[Deleted member 34016]

I spent 10 minutes tracking this lovely little Woodpecker in a local wood - he was flitting around from tree to tree
I suspect he has a nest close by - Its a Male as the red patch on his head is a positive ID for male GSW

Heres a few:

Nice find Les

Thank you Roger- I later found the nest hole - sounds like its occupied, so I'll leave it alone

Yes I did read that- my issue is its open for all - I would have thought members only initially - as we support
WWT all year round- but hey -ho
