And here's one of them peeking out of the nest to check it's safe to leave:
Here's a close-up of the nest hole, taken with flash to illuminate some of the interior. It's on the underside of a branch and then turns a corner, so you can't see the chicks. Apparently woodpeckers normally drill sideways into a trunk and then downwards, but I guess this pair fancied a change!
Here's the logs I was processing for the woodburner ready for next winter:
I went home with a nice trailer load!
