    It's a bit blurred as it was taken through the window.

    Fantastic Lyn!

    What a great bird to visit your feeders. I'm REALLY jealous!

    Do you live near to woods?

    Ah she's beautiful. We had one on our red hot pokers a few years ago - they pop in every now and then. We haven't seen ours yet this year, but we have green woodpeckers making a mess of the front lawn quite a lot. :rolleyes:

    We had a spotted one last year but I didn't get chance to get a photo.
    We live near to Sutton Park Nature reserve.
    We go there a lot but never see anything .
