        I have a similar problem, 3 families of woodpeckers competing with squirrels as my peanuts disappear overnight!

            No problem with Squirrels Now!, we only allow three at any one time around the feeders, even then they cannot get up to the feeders

              lucky to have them in your garden but as a photograph it is rather dark and may be better with the shadows lifted

                Fantastic to have in the garden, we only get them infrequently. Think Stans comment is right the image is a bit dark.

                One minor point bird is great spotted woodpecker, not greater. I know it's a bit strange as it's smaller relative is lesser spotted woodpecker.
