Black-rumped flameback, a photo from Punjab, East

Photographer's Note

The black-rumped flameback (Dinopium benghalense), also known as the lesser golden-backed woodpecker or lesser goldenback, is a woodpecker found widely distributed in the Indian subcontinent. It is one of the few woodpeckers that are seen in urban areas. It has a characteristic rattling-whinnying call and an undulating flight. It is the only golden-backed woodpecker with a black throat and black rump.

This is certainly a magnificent little woodpecker here...very beautiful markings and colors on this little flameback which you have captured so well here. The little red crest is a nice little added touch to the overall costume! Very well done by you here.
