Red Bellied Woodpecker
This guy has just started to visit the garden, he is very wary, so this is the closest I have got before he flies off. he is a red bellied woodpecker, even though he isn't very red on the belly, but there is a red hooded woodpecker, who has a complete red head. Confused?

TBH at the moment I am excited I am taking bird shots, as mine are usually fairly cr@p, I keep forgetting composition

Looks like a Greater Spotted Woodpecker. The male has a red head while the female has a black head.
