I have started a new thread for this as the other was taking so long to load I had to stop watching it!

I had a bird yesterday running around and up the oak tree, which I don't recognise, it has a narrow, long sharp beak and was obviously looking for food hiding in the bark, at one stage it's head disappeared under a hollow near the base. It ran rather than hopped as a woodpecker does.

It has a white breast and a mottled cream and brown back.
