Looking for the Woodpecker


We went back to Denny Woods again today and waited for the Woodpecker. He made several appearances but kept trying to hide behind the trees. It was a bit like the sun that kept disappearing behind the clouds! Just before we left we stopped at the gate lower down where somebody had hung up some fat balls in little nets, and finally we got some clear views of him.
Whilst we were waiting for him we were entertained by the antics of the grey squirrels, who were after the bird food.

We have a woodpecker like this in our garden. It is very shy though, and I have never managed to shoot a photo of it.
