Though, on the other hand, their habit of being on the ground more often than other woodpecker species makes them easier to spot. When they are in trees, they often hide behind leaves etc.
They don’t have the drumming sound of the great spotted woodpecker. On the other hand, their ‘laughing’ call is more conspicuous than the great spotted woodpecker’s call.
We have such around here too. Often watch them in my garden. So beautiful!

You are lucky to see them in your garden! They are often shy; I did see them, but not many times.

Yes, they don’t stay long most of all when they notice someone!

That is right. At least they are seen better… the others are heard better!
