Green Woodpecker

I often have several green woodpeckers visit the garden and last year one actually nested in one of the oak trees, yet i am still finding it hard to get a decent picture of them, here he is digging in the snow, as he dug he was going up and down, so 95% of the shots was like this




and a couple like this



But the light was so bad, i used a high ISO and so I'm not pleased with the quality
