EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Derek Middleton, we witness a charming scene straight out of an English winter wonderland. A vibrant Green Woodpecker, proudly identified as an adult female (Picus viridis), is caught in action as she indulges in a feast of windfall apples. Against the picturesque backdrop of rural England, this ground-dwelling beauty showcases her wild and playful side. With her striking emerald plumage contrasting against the snowy landscape, she pecks away at the fallen fruits with gusto. Who knew woodpeckers had such refined taste for juicy apples? This spirited bird reminds us that nature's wonders are not limited to soaring eagles or majestic lions; sometimes it's the smaller creatures that steal our hearts. As she busily feeds on these delicious treats, one can't help but admire her resourcefulness and adaptability during the chilly winter months. It seems like even Mother Nature has provided this feathered friend with a bountiful buffet amidst frosty temperatures. So next time you stumble upon windfall apples in your own backyard, remember to keep an eye out for unexpected visitors like our apple-loving avian companion!
