Woody Wood Woodpecker hammers away at Casuarina tree trunk to create a nest hole in India, at our Wilderness Orchard
Fancy new name Black rumped Flameback for good old Golden-backed Woodpecker pecking away at wood around its nest hole on a tree trunk at the Wilderness Orchard in Delhi. Notice the four toes that this Katphora has!
A Golden-backed Woodpeckers or Black rumped Flameback couple start excavating their summer-time breeding nest-hole in a Casuarina tree at the Wilderness Orchard in New Delhi.
Now called a Flameback but previously and always known to us as the good old Golden-backed Woodpecker, a Katphora it will always remain! Inquisitively peeking out of its newly excavated nest hole, the Woodpecker surveys its new domain...
This Katphora or Golden-backed Woodpecker (now known as the Lesser Flameback) lives up to its name, by excavating a nest-hole within the dead tree trunk of a Casuarina tree at our Orchard in Delhi. With its bright flame-back golden wings and back, and its jaunty red crest, it is a colourful and cheery bird to behold, as it claims its territory in the arboreal spaces of our city, and prepares to lay eggs within the tree hole cavity, and bring up a brood of little Woody woodpeckers!
