Great Spotted Woodpecker
Dendrocopos major
These three pictures were taken close to the feeding station at Moore Nature Reserve, probably my favourite of all my local reserves.
I like the setting in the first image, with the bird isolated from the background, but I wasn’t close enough, so I had to crop quite a bit.
I’ve often seen Green Woodpeckers here too, although I’ve never managed to capture one. I also saw a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker and managed to get a picture, but it’s not one of my best!
