These large, charismatic Woodpeckers visit our garden, searching for their favourite food, ants. Bigger than the Great Spotted Woodpecker, they are always such a thrill to watch and photograph.Their wisdom is all about new beginnings and bringing in the new energy needed to change.
 
Although Green Woodpeckers rarely hammer like other Woodpeckers they share the same wisdom. They are always such a positive symbol of learning to go with the changes that show up in our lives and learning to be adaptive and to move with the change rather than resist it.
 
I love this image of the Green Woodpecker on the beautiful Silver Birch tree at the bottom of our garden. Hope you do too!
 
I co created the original of her on crisp white cartridge paper using Polychromos pencils.
 
These beautiful cards are perfect for sending to loved ones as a surprise or note in a package.  You can also frame them to make delightful miniature pieces of art for your home or work space.
 
I donate 10% of all sales of this piece to the Derbyshire Wildlife Trust who are working hard to protect wildlife in its natural habitat here in Derbyshire, UK.
