Black Woodpecker: more feeding site signs

Here is another example of a classic feeding site of Black Woodpecker. Large, long slits and oval-shaped holes, large woodchips on the ground below. Some holes close to the ground, too. The bird has hacked into the heart of the tree to feed on carpenter ants. Photo taken in the Buda Hills, Budapest, Hungary, December 2008.
