Scientific Name : Dendrocopos major
Location : Enniscorty
County : Wexford
Number Seen : 1
Principal Observer(s) : Eddie Heffernan Not Specified
Reported By : Not Specified
Comments : Juvenile flew into our closed patio door, and knocked itself out cold. We have a lot of neighbourhood cats in the area so I decided to pick it up out of the way. After squealing like a banshee for a minute it calmed down as I gently stroked it's head and sat on my hand. After about 15 minutes sitting on my hand, I'm glad to say that it perked up and flew away.
Status : See IRBC Appendix 2
