I'm surprised that folks didn't know it was a woodpecker.
I've had a picture in my head of the noisy bugger from the first time I heard Restless.
The in-laws had a huge one in a dead tree behind their property..omigosh it was annoying!
Very unlike the 'musical' woodpecker that Barry portrays so beautifully with a wooden block and stick.
