Pretty good camouflage, until it starts finding food that is. Then the noise pretty much gives it away.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

There are two kinds of woodpeckers that both are quite similar to each other.<\/p>\n

You have got the Green Woodpecker<\/a> and the Grey-headed Woodpecker<\/a>.
Both are green on their back, but the green woodpecker has got a dark field around the eyes. So when I first took this picture I was so sure that I had seen a Green Woodpecker, but then it turned out to be a Grey-headed one instead<\/strike>. <\/p>\n

This guy (or girl, I’ve no idea witch it is) perched in a three outside our apartment one Sunday. Again I got a lucky shot.<\/p>\n

Correction: I’ve done some more research and it might be possible that this is a Green Woodpecker after all, but a juvenile not an adult. I found this site<\/a> today, and there you can see the same spotted chest as in my picture. Oh well, if there are somebody who knows, please add a comment to this post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
