Animal India - Black-rumped Flameback Woodpecker - Dinopium Benghalense
A couple of wild Black-rumped Flameback Woodpeckers (Dinopium benghalense), also known as the Lesser Golden-backed Woodpeckers or Lesser Goldenbacks, were seen eating cooked rice on the wall of a house at Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on 14/02/2024. This ''small-billed'' woodpecker, which has four toes, is endemic to the Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka. It is one of the few woodpeckers observed 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 a black rump.(Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
