Did you spot this in Ireland? If so itmight be an idea to send details of the sighting to Birdwatch Ireland or the Irish Wildlife Trust as they are trying to establish if woodpeckers are now breeding in Ireland.

Got this shot whilst on holidays in Turkey,although I believe that they are
now seen in certain parts of Ireland too.Thanks Tadhg..
