My first snapshots of a lesser spotted woodpecker!
A comma butterfly was on the wing and three buzzards circled overhead. A marsh tit was seen near the green pool, then it was over the stile for me and back into the madness of Burnham Beeches to retrieve my car.

A late, damp walk in Burnham Beeches brought a lesser spotted woodpecker. I was able to track it for some time as it worked its way through the trees, but it was high up in the canopy and I couldn't tell whether it was male or female. This was close to my February 1999 sighting.
A weasel running across the track was the only other thing of note.
