Fieldfare and Green woodpecker sharing fallen apples this morning at 08.30hr in Cuckfield, West Sussex, UK





This fielfare is a bully when it comes to chasing off song thrushes and blackbirds but a woodpecker is tolerated it seems.  Click to enlarge the pictures.
Please see also http://www.peterlovetttalks.co.uk/page19.html for details of my latest talk: "The evolution of a formal garden to a nature reserve."
The pictures above were taken from this vantage point in the warmth of the house.
More than two hours later at 10.42hr, the sun is brighter, the woodpecker is gone and the fieldfare is still tucking in.
10.42hr fieldfare still eating apples.
