Egypt Woods
A lesser spotted woodpecker on this dark and drizzly day gave me my third sighting this year. I watched it for a good quarter of an hour, but it stayed high up and I was unable to tell whether it was male or female. However I have a feeling it wasn't the female of January 1st because the white markings were slightly different.
Also seen: a single lesser redpoll and two bramblings with a flock of chaffinches.
