One of each...

Woodpeckers, that is.....not the complete set and I am not expecting to complete the trio....I have only ever seen one Lesser Spotted Woodpecker in the hand....however, I am not complaining...

These two birds below have completely different attitudes in the net and in the hand.  The Green, larger than the Great Spotted, doesnt complain at either....the Great Spotted however, is one of the noisy birds in the net and in the hand (along with Starling and Jay)....both are fabulous birds to catch....
