About the Bird

Most common pied woodpecker in most of Eurasia. Fairly common in almost all types of forest and woodland, parkland, gardens, even farmland with hedges and scattered larger trees. Feeds mainly on trunks and larger branches; also visits feeders. Size and bold black-and-white plumage distinctive in most of range. Note big white shoulder patches, extensive red on vent, black crown. Male has red nape patch; juvenile (both sexes) has red cap.


Backyard Tips

They will happily tuck in at feeders containing peanuts, sunflower seeds and fat, and sometimes peck at apples in search of grubs inside. In late spring, adult woodpeckers often bring their offspring to feeders. 

Leaving dead trees standing where they are will mean a supply of wood-boring grubs and other bugs, great spotted woodpeckers' principal food source.

It is good to be aware that great spotted woodpeckers will sometimes attack nestboxes containing eggs and chicks. You can help prevent this by fitting a metal hole surround.

In addition to adding bird food to your garden, dotting dead branches and logs around will also help to draw in these spectacular birds as their natural food supply of wood-boring grubs will soon set up home, albeit temporarily! It’s also a good idea to set up a second bird bath, as woodpeckers will likely be put off visiting a busy one that’s being enjoyed by your usual garden visitors.

What Patrizia's Clients Are Saying


"
Pictures and video don’t do these paintings justice! They are truly amazing. The kids already think it’s so cool to have a painting of each of their “first homes”. Abby J.


"Patriza is an incredibly gifted artist that not only creates beautiful artwork for others, but also gives back to the community and causes she believes in. I would cover my entire house in her artwork if I could!!"
Jo G. 


"Absolutely LOVE her work. Painted with love and care. She listens to your needs and is willing to go extra mileS for her customers!!!!"
Deb S.L. 


"Patrizia’s art is beautiful! I commissioned three paintings of our homes from her and love every one of them. She even helped piece together one of our homes because I never took a full front view photo of it. Talented to say the least! I will be continuing our gallery wall with her art as we move. "
Amanda M.C.


"I had three paintings commissioned of our homes, and she did a wonderful job on all of them! She was very responsive and finished all of the paintings in the timeline she originally gave me. I would love to order from her again!"
Chloe D. 


"So very pleased with the houses Patrizia painted for me! This makes the most perfect gift - both were housewarming gifts for friends/family to remember & document their precious home! Couldn’t have been happier with the communication and turn-around time. I can’t wait to have my own house done!"
​Ashley S.
