PLATE LXXVIII. 
Middle Wood-Pecker. 
This rpecies agrees with the preceding in colours and fize, excepting, that the crown of the 
head in this is of a rich crimfon ; the crown of the head in the male of the former black ; and 
the crimfon is in the form of a bar in the hind part. Birds, thus marked, have been fliot in 
Lancalhire, and other parts of England ; but I am doubtful whether they are varieties or diftinft 
fpecies. Pennants Defcription.
