How beautiful this woodpecker is and such a lovely pose too.

I presume this must be the nominate subspecies (as the one currently in Opus is the darker ssp kerri)? I'll add your picture there too, as it would be the first to come in for this form.

Many thanks for sharing it with us Jason - what a great find for you.
