Spotted
The Great Slaty Woodpecker is the largest woodpecker in Southeast Asia, an imposing bird with predominantly grey plumage and a powerful bill. It moves methodically through the canopy.
Where to spot
Found in lowland and hill forests across Southeast Asia, from the Himalayas to Sumatra and Borneo. Prefers dense, mature woodlands.
How to spot
Look for its large size, uniformly slaty-grey plumage, and strong, deliberate movements up large tree trunks. Listen for its loud, characteristic calls that often give away its presence.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often more visible in the mornings and late afternoons when foraging. Can be observed year-round in its non-migratory range.

Unlike many woodpeckers, the Great Slaty Woodpecker is often seen foraging in small, noisy flocks, moving through the forest together and communicating with loud calls.
