I think that this is adult female Syrian Woodpecker.

Adult female Syrian
MikeC.
Me too! Adult female Syrian after a hard day's drilling timber. EM
Looks a bit jaundiced though!

Woodpecker 5 has caused some problems! But it is a juvenile Syrian. Not long fledged. Hard to judge the sex, but probably a female because even at this angle some red would be seen.
I should have said that "some red would be seen" ON THE CROWN.
