GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKER (Juv) // DENTROCOPUS MAJOR (24cm)
POSTING JUVENILE BIRDS FROM HOME
====================================
JUVENILE recalls the adult but note the red crown and subdued red vent colour. this one has been around for quite a while, so its not a very young one. But a real joy climbing tree trunks in the garden, excavates timber by drilling with its bill, does not like its photo being taken, on seeing me it will go to the far side of the tree. Has a undulating flight, loves the peanut feeders, but flys straight to them, and away the same, so a oppertunity like above, captured yesterday (Tues.) has to be taken.
====================================================
THANK YOU for your visit and comment, will look forward to seeing your lastest image and doing the same. being transported around the world with images, from you my extended family, brings me a lot of joy, God bless you all......
