Väike-kirjurähn, Dendrocopos minor

Eestis kaitse all olev väike-kirjurähn otsib toitu puutüvede asemel hoopis peamiselt okstel turnides, olles turnimises muide väga osav.

Lesser Spotted Woodpecker is a protected species in Estonia. On the contrary to other woodpeckers, it searches for food by climbing on the branches and the bird is very good at it.

Näeb teda pigem harva, kuna ta on ainult veidi varblasest suurem ning ühe koha peal väga kaua ei püsi. Pärnumaa.

You can spot it quite rarely as it is only a tiny bit bigger than a sparrow and it does not stay on the same tree for very long (and - well, it's called lesser spotted also :)) Pärnumaa, Estonia.
