Hi there
I've sent my swiss girlfriend off on a mission to find Black Woodpeckers in / near Zurich. I know they are supposed to be in the area but we've tried to see them on a couple of occasions (Oetliberg and the woods near Richterswil) but not had any luck yet.
If any of you can recommend any particular woods as being good for Black Woodpeckers that would be great - she lives on the southern shore of lake zurich by richterswil so anything around that are in particular would be great.
Also as she's relatively new to birdwatching any tips on finding black woodpeckers would be appreciated too !
Many thanks
