Image info
Juvenile Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopus major) feeding on peanuts at a garden feeding station, Cumbria, England: the tongue is extended and the eye part closed.
Two images in the same sequence showed an extended tongue and part closed eye. Are these two movements always linked? Does poking the tongue out cause blinking?
