Oh and starlings

or "i was thinking". that's bloody dangerous/expensive.

Got to be oyster catchers, absolute arseholes, build a nest somewhere stupid then panic and sh!t their pants at a falling twig then everyone within the square mile needs to hear about it.

Back in the 60s when I was doing my O & A levels the green woodpeckers used to wake me up so I would lie awake fretting about the coming exams and cursing them to high heaven.
How I would love to hear them again now! Where have they gone and why?

Loads of them round here.
One of the most common birds in fact.

Seagulls, they mock and laugh at you all the time. . . and steal ewe rolls.

Their favourite feed is meadow ants, which thrive in old meadows/pastures/lawns. Much less old grassland around now.

We find if we fence an area off in an old permanent pasture (eg along a stream) we soon get the distinctive grass covered mounds of meadow ant nests popping up. We do see and hear green woodpeckers ('yaffles') around feeding, but where the cows are in the fields the nests don't get a chance to get established, presumably due to constant trampling.

Wet,wet,wet call, of green woodpecker... Because it does usually herald rain.

Hadn't realised your are so ancient... anyway, as a boy in Herts green woodpeckers were very common, and I am pleased to write that they still are. Over here, in Carms, I hardly ever see one, just an occasional call; which is odd because I remember them as common here when I was young.

Still lots of anthills around here, lots of trees, loads of dying ash... and lots and and lots of spotted woodpeckers, mostly the Greats, but also Lesser ones too. No idea why the Greens should be scarce now...
