NEW woodpecker record from our drinking hide

We are happy to announce that in May 2014 several woodpeckers visiting our drinking hides on a daily basis and even some more scarce and sought after subjects like Black and Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers are also regular. Also in late May we had a record day when no less then 6 different woodpecker species were photographed: Lesser Spotted-, Middle Spotted-, Great Spotted, Green and Black Woodpeckers plus Wryneck!
