Woodland Walk 6/3/10

A lovely early afternoon walk at an undisclosed site in Mid-Sussex resulted in my best views yet of a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker. It was a female bird and was picked up by her call and stayed high in the trees but always on the move and after two minutes of great views it flew off further round the wood.

It was also nice to see so much display activity from the local Great and Blue Tits, along with calling Nuthatches and Treecreepers, and also two Bullfinches flew by.

I managed to get pictures of various bird species but unfortunately the LSW was too far away for any picture, but i was too busy watching this very scarce bird.
