Unfair Advantage

I've spent weeks trying to take a photograph of one of these Greater Spotted Woodpeckers, but could never get close enough to get a clear shot. This one appeared on the bird feeder whilst I was working in Hedgerly. It stayed for about five minutes, having a real good treat. With that beak it has a real advantage over most of the others who feed here. It has been back several times since. This is a great area for birds, with an RSBP Reserve just at the bottom of the village.
