Media notes
Female. Remarks: Taiwan has three woodpeckers. The Grey-headed Woodpecker is considered uncommon. The Avifauna of Taiwan, 2nd edition states that there is a downward trend in numbers but no major threat. They estimate numbers of this sub-species at between 500 to 1,000. We saw an adult female as (possibly) part of a mixed foraging party. There was also a White-backed Woodpecker Dendrocopos leucotos in the same location. Brazil 2009 says that P. c. tancolo is "smaller and darker than other subspecies with stronger grey face, deeper green upperparts and green underparts". - Amar. Date added to OBI: January 08, 2015.
