Woodpeckers, Spring and Bridges

The woodland is looking amazing at the moment. The ground is green,

The buds are budding (including our fruit trees)

Flowers are ... flowering!

and the woodpecker is lovely. I spend ages watching this little fellow. Not easy to get decent photos because of all the twigs.

There are loads of pheasants around

and lots of butterflies.

Anyone know what this is?

While I was being quiet watching birds, Mike and some engineering students were being noisy, building a bridge in another part of the wood. More to come on this topic from Mike!
