Great Spotted Woodpecker Chick at Tehidy Woods - Wildlife in Cornwall UK

Great Spotted Woodpecker Chick at Tehidy Woods Cornwall UK Filmed over the period of a month in the spring of 2012. About blackbird-sized and striking black-and-white. It has a very distinctive bouncing flight and spends most of its time clinging to tree trunks and branches, often trying to hide on the side away from the observer. Its presence is often announced by its loud call or by its distinctive spring 'drumming' display. The male has a distinctive red patch on the back of the head and young birds have a red crown. The lesser spotted woodpecker is the smallest and least common of the three woodpeckers that are resident in Britain. The male is distinguished from the female by his bright red crown. It tends to nest and feed higher up and is quieter in its tapping. Usually located by its call, and its drumming. When feeding it creeps along branches and flutters from branch to branch, flying with an undulating flight in the open Filmed in the spring of 2012 Video Produced by Paul Dinning - Wildlife in Cornwall
