Spending a few days with friends in Sheffield and, as they are keen birders, we went to a local park to try and see a Lesser Spotted Woodpecker which one of our friends had seen.

Not so lucky with the Lesser Spotted Woodpecker but I managed a Great Spotted Woodpecker and some other woodland birds, notably a Nuthatch and a Treecreeper.

We couldn’t hang around as we were setting off for Bempton Cliffs on the East Yorkshire coast.
