We are still surrounded by wildlife here at Spring Farm. The picture is of a male greater spotted woodpecker feeding on our peanut feeder. he initially chases off the sparrows and then monopolises the peanut feeder until either frightened off or sated.

We still have flocks of greenfinches and goldfinches feeding on the nyger seed and sunflower hearts – when not feeding in our wildflower meadows on the knapweed!
