Thank you East End aka Lorelei :)

So beautiful! Much more colorful than the Downy or Hairy Woodpeckers (they're all beautiful though) I love the butterflies as well.

Ikke jeg heller, det er jo ikke noe flagg på den hehe :P
Jeannette
Ja, det er næsten det samme, ved dog ikke hvor navnet stammer fra...
Stian Waaler
Her heter den Flaggspett, nesten det samme navnet ;)
Jeannette
Tak Stian :) Er også meget glad hver gang den kommer på besøg. Den hedder stor flagspætte.
Jeannette
Thank you Karen :) I had to look twice, I didn't recognize you because of you new avatar ;)

Kjempe fint bilde... Liker denne fugle veldig godt.. Heter det hakkespett på dansk eller heter det noe annet?
