No sooner had you posted your GSW, one appeared briefly on the bird feeder. As is often the case we have noticed when one woodpecker comes the other comes soon after. Well it was a few days late but this morning this juvenile came hopping around the lawn and trees. Our garden is obviously a dispersal route for fledgling peckers as it happens like this every year. If only they would appear in sunlight as they can be quite dull in overcast light.

He/She first landed on the patio and had to shoot through d/glazing at an angle so not as sharp as window open. I also had to be quick as it was off in a moment...so I unfortunately didn't frame it right to get both feet in.

However, do my eyes deceive me ...has it got a number on its right leg?
