Last sunday a Greater Spotted Woodpecker visited my feeders, a bird I had been hoping for there, but that wouldn't come for a long time.
A female and I even got acceptable shots of it. Other birds I have seen there were Winter Wren, Dunnock, Robin, Blue and Great Tit and Blackbird. A Magpie and a Jay tried to reach the food, but were too big for the house but a Squirrel had no problems to enter it...
Apart from that I got a few other bird species too. For example I saw my first Little Grebe in Hamburg, the first Hooded Crow and Redpolls for this winter. When I was on the Elbe I encountered many Pheasants but also the Eurasian Teals I hadn't seen at all since then.
But nevertheless I think my first encounter ever with Little Spotted Woodpecker was the best finding during the last days... Sadly I didn't have my camera with me...
