As the sound of woodpecker drumming fills canopies up and down the country, Will Rose releases the latest of his fantastic What Bird is That? videos, this time teaching you to distinguish between Green, Great Spotted and Lesser Spotted woodpeckers.

Learn how woodpeckers use not just their powerful bills, but their extremely long tongues to find food. Learn how their markings help us tell the difference between male and female, and which woodpecker is most likely to be seen on your bird feeder.

A series by award-winning animator Will Rose, What Bird is That? is birding for beginners; a fun new channel to help both the young and old identify and enjoy the birds around them. How do you tell a Swift from a Swallow, what is that bird on my bird table? Supported by‪ ‬Leica Sport Optics Birding‬ and fact-checked by the ‪BTO, learn how to start birdwatching, how to tell birds apart by their shape, song, behaviour, habitat and have fun along the way.
