Snow and a Greater Spotted Woodpecker!

Greater Spotted Woodpecker

Well what d’ya know?  I was sitting in my dining room which looks out onto my back garden, having a skype conversation with my parents, when this fellow turned up!  Wow!  Conversation had to stop as I described what I was seeing.  Don’t see them very often in my garden.  We’ve had about 2/3 inches of snow today and maybe he fancied the fat balls I had just put out.  The photo above is not of this event, but another time – I put it on here for identification, in case anyone wasn’t sure what it looked like.  Stunner!
Many other birds visiting.
