This is an image from my archives, pictured sometime in 2014 at Nagarhole. This is more of a record image of one of the largest woodpecker species in India and I was lucky to spot the noisy couple. Looks like they had an argument and it seemed the fork of the tree was bone of contention . They both stuck to their part of the tree circling it and hammering it with their powerful beaks. They did make quite a din, not sure who won the argument but we moved on after a while.
Nikon D7k, f/8, SS 1/320, ISO 800,ec +.3, 420mm (300f4+1.4xTC). Cropped quite a bit.
