I rarely see them but this one seems to like this dead tree trunk. It has, quite a lot of activity at the moment

Great one Snappy.

Thanks PB, I made the most of it.

Woody's smaller relation. A great photo . The one that visits my garden seldom stands still to allow photos

Thanks Jack, lucky to have one in the garden. I get a few rock doves from time to time.
