I took a trip to a mates place where I have a few feeders and this GSW (Female I believe) is now a regular visitor. I`m now looking forward to getting a few photos when there`s a bit of sunlight about and not the drab stuff we`re getting at the moment.

 
I had one in my garden over day at bird feeder , for all of 4 or 5 seconds , was looking out window at the time , mother n law saw it too , otherwise wife wouldn't have believed me .

my folks have a couple of families of lesser spotted and an occasional green woodpecker coming to a bird table not 6 feet from their kitchen window.

very funny birds
they really dont like feeding with other woodpeckers and do this dance to stay on opposite sides
 
A good sight, Indeed. They sound like gun fire In the distance, when they are pecking the trees. Wonderfull bird's
