Is This A Greater or Lesser Spotted Woodpecker?
I can’t tell, as I’m no expert and my hand wasn’t steady enough to get a clear picture.
Here is a quick video. I’m afraid I couldn’t get close enough and the woodpecker didn’t co-operate.

What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.

The man from the RSPB at Drayton Lakes, said that as lesser-spotted are very rare and the bird was about the size of a blackbird, it was a great-spotted woodpecker.
