Spotted
The Black-rumped Flameback is a common and widespread woodpecker, easily recognized by its bright golden-yellow back and contrasting black rump. It's a highly adaptable species, found in a variety of wooded habitats, including gardens.
Where to spot
Widely distributed across the Indian subcontinent, from India and Sri Lanka eastward into parts of Southeast Asia, thriving in forests, woodlands, and urban parks.
How to spot
Look for its striking golden-yellow back and black rump. Listen for its loud, ringing, almost laughing calls and its rapid drumming on trees, which are often heard before the bird is seen.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, observed year-round in its resident range. Early mornings are often productive for sightings and hearing its characteristic calls.
