Crimson-winged Woodpecker

This is a greenish medium-sized woodpecker with bright red wings, crown & a striking yellow crest, cream-speckled sides, and pale blue-gray “spectacles”. It inhabits both primary & secondary forests, from lowlands into lower montane areas, as well as plantations & logged tracts favouring areas with scattered and isolated tall trees. It forages on trunks and large branches in the upper story, often in distanced pairs or mixed flocks.
