Hi I have a couple of great spotted woodpeckers visiting my feeders for couple months. Yesterday I spotted this bird though and not sure what it is. I thought it may be one of their young but it doesn’t really have any if their markings or colours. Is this a young great spotted woodpecker or is it another species woodpecker ? Cheers

I would guess at a juvenile Starling,even without an image.

No you need to have another look its definitely not a great tit. Its a woodpecker but dont know if its just a juvenile great spotted or different species

No I don’t unless you’ve uploaded the wrong video

Feel free to get other opinions though, men are probably better at these things o
