Laced woodpecker can be found in many parts of Singapore, from garden, mangrove to wooded area. The male has a red crown, while the female has a dark crown.
With the monsoon season over, is time for the woodpeckers to start looking for suitable tree trunk to build their nest. I saw this pair of Laced woodpecker at Pasir Ris Park. Is the knocking & pecking sound that attracted my attention.
This male has made quite a progress when I saw them.
While the male busy making a hole on the tree trunk, the female stay close to observe.
The female move closer to check on the progress.
The female have a close inspection of this potential new nest of the season.
Unfortunately, it wasn't up to the female expectation. There are no movement for the next 2 days. The male will have to look for new tree trunk and work on the new nest.
