Woodpeckers of Europe: Quiz Woodpecker 7

Any ideas ?

Species will do!

As the name suggests...

this blog is dedicated to the ten species of woodpecker (Picidae) that breed in Europe: nine resident species and the migratory Wryneck. Eight of these ten species also occur outside Europe, with the distribution of Three-toed, White-backed, Lesser Spotted, Great Spotted, Black and Grey-headed Woodpeckers stretching eastwards from the western Palearctic region into Asia, whilst Syrian is found in the Middle East and Asia Minor and Wryneck winters in Africa. The global ranges of Green and Middle Spotted Woodpeckers are more limited being confined to the Western Palearctic.

I welcome comments, suggestions and photographs, and will credit all used items. My aim is to create a non-profit source for all lovers of the European Picidae.
