Took Mrs Blythman to see the squirrels yesterday. Gave her the best view.

However, camera had to come out for this Great Spotted Woodpecker. Such super birds. Thought I'd share.

Thanks guys. Its a male. ID'd by red colouration on the back of the head. Females have just black, whilst youngsters are red on top of the head.

Here's a Nuthatch from the same session.

Super capture Alan. I'm pleased you got the shot in it's "natural" position.

That woodpecker shot's a cracker!
Do you mind telling us what lens you used?
