Lesser Spotted Woodpecker

More time spent in the homeland of my youth and this time Cassiobury Park, a lovely place well manicured and packed full of childhood memories.

It was also the place I saw my first Lesser Spotted Woodpecker around 20 years ago, so it was great to return to see this scarce and localised head-banger.  Such a beaut and a really smart little bird.  It was really active, calling, drumming, all singing, all dancing.
