| |  missing woodpeckers
Hello every one, I am wondering if any one as heard or noticed any shortage of green woodpeckers, we always have several pairs in our land, and as we have had a rabbit problem for some years, these are very often followed by ants and we have a lot at the moment, could it have anything to do with the cold winter and all the snow, we live between stratford and warwick right out in the open small village, we have also missed the cuckoo for the last five years as anyone else, bye, aland.  |

No shortage in the Cambridge area, they even feed on ants in the very busy Park & Ride car parks.

Got a single one here that still keep 'calling' for a mate...has been for weeks!!!But have the spotted ones...wonder if they keep away from each other 'cos the green one never comes to the tables but the others are here all the time??Maybe I have to put other food out for it?
