I did not have a planned visit to my St. Nicholas Church local patch site today but I did walk up Church Hill as part of an exercise walk.
As I did so, I heard but failed to see my first "drumming" Great Spotted Woodpecker of the year in the wooded area adjacent to the Laindon Park School playing field.
This is a sound that I can expect to hear regularly over the coming weeks as male Great Spotted Woodpeckers try and secure their territories and attract females for the breeding season.
