Green Woodpecker (Forest of Dean)

After this shot, I got a little bit closer.
And it was working.
It was by the side of a road, when a car happened by, it would just turn round the tree, so it wasn't seen from the car. Pretty nifty work?

    It's called hide and seek Bob. Nice timing.

    What a gorgeous bird Bob, great composition and so colorful! I have not seen this particular color either, which makes more exciting to gaze at...

    Frank, nice one.

    Hi Linda, I'm not sure, but I think, that you don't have over in the USA.

    Thanks Phivos.
