Thanks Jan, I keep my camera at the ready by my office window and glance out from time to time, I couldn't believe my luck when I saw the woodpecker by the pond.

Thanks everybody. Once, a few years ago we had a whole family of green woodpeckers arrived. We saw them pecking away at a stump in the middle of the lawn and after they has flown off we inspected the stump and discovered that there was an ants nest and they had been devouring them.

Today it was the turn of a goldfinch to have a bath. He wouldn't keep very still for the camera.
