Ratel's photos #182 Forest Birds-132

The lesser spotted woodpecker (Dryobates minor)

Cute, woodpecker the size of a sparrow. Several times during the winter, I saw this fellow. It can easily be recognized by a soft knock.
Pay attention, unlike his older woodpeckers - brothers, he does not have "red panties".

No, the picture is not upside down. It's quite normal for him, comfortable :)

Quite a rare woodpecker in my forest. Sometimes it looks for a visit.
