Subject: GOLDEN BACK WOODPECKER VISITING FLOWERS OF ERYTHRINA SPECIES.
To:
I recorded few images of Golden back woodpecker visiting flowers of
Erythrina species. I thought Woodpeckers don't visit flowers. But in last
few days I saw this incident twice on the same tree. I am not sure whether
the bird was the same. Attaching a collage of the incident. Probably the
bird has developed taste for nectar.
