Woodpecker young




 Woodpecker has a young.
I noticed this a week ago, when he went to and fro with a beak full of food, flying away.
i kept on providing food, hoping that the young woodpecker would come himself.

After waiting and sitting ready with my camera, The young woodpecker came.
Such an adorable bird. 
The brilliant red on top of his head is amazing.
It's a different place than the parent, who has the red spot more at the back of his head.
When the parent is there, the young acts, as if he is not able to pick the food for himself. However, when the parent has gone, the young is well able to pick the food...
