Green-Backed Woodpecker - Natural History Illustration #210952 (License: Personal Use)

This finely rendered illustration depicts a green-backed woodpecker (likely *Picus viridis* or a related species) perched vertically on a weathered tree trunk, gripping with strong zygodactyl feet. Its plumage features an olive-green back, bright yellow throat and upper breast, black-and-white barred wings, and a vivid red rump; the head shows a dark cap with a pale supercilium and a sharp, chisel-like bill. A sprig of compound leaves hangs beside it, suggesting a temperate woodland setting, while soft grass at the base adds ecological context.
