The Great Spotted Woodpecker is especially common around the Ashdown Forest with its distinctive bouncing flight coupled by its loud call and 'drumming’ displays that echo throughout the trees.


  • During the Spring the great spotted woodpecker is also a common visitor to our gardens, happily tucking in at bird feeders and often bringing their offspring to feeders too!  As a result of such exciting sitings many of our Oast needle felting community have been asking Cecily Kate to bring this iconic British bird to life!
