The Syrian Woodpeckers in the local park are very active. There is a pair, though I cannot find the hole. Maybe it is in a nearby private garden, where I am unable to enter and explore. I have seen them drumming in the park, in a horse chestnut tree, and heard then calling and interacting with the Great Spotted Woodpeckers there... but am not sure at all that they are breeding there.

Dear Roman.
I always love reading about woodpeckers in your blog.
the Easter weekend I was at the "Neusiedler See" Nationalpark in Austria watching birds. Unfortunately we only saw the Great Spotted Woodpecker.
Maybe I was too "obsessed" with the Eastern Imperial Eagles we saw several times, so I didn't notice too many "small birds". I just love eagles.
I hope I will have more luck next time I visit this place.
