I live in Flora Gardens which is just the other side of Ravenscourt Road. Back in January I replied with the following on the Chiswick forum. I noticed a Great Spotted Woodpecker making a home in the tree just outside my living room window. And he, yes it is the male doing all the work, was back yesterday and he has obviously been very busy as his whole body now fits into the hole he has dug out. Unfortunately since I posted the above comment he lost out as, after all his hard work, he seemed to leave it for a while and the Starlings took over. Still they are obviously very happy with everything he did as they appear to be raising quite a few young.
