Great woodpecker

It's taken when the first snow arrived and the snow helped to get a nice light.
Taken from a hide.

    Exceptional pic. Very handsome bird. The white background intensifies it's colors.

    Thanks all for you nice comments.
    I posted this and the Bearded Tit because they have been posted once before by a closed member of this site who stolen a lot of my pictures from www.treknature,com and posted them under his own name.
    It's the same with Mikaels pictures.

    Best Regards
