Thanks all for the comments. :)

This bird makes a nest by drilling into trees so not only on branches like theses. Guess I was lucky it decided to make such an interesting nest.

The young was ready to fledge at that point of time as it was quite big already. You could see that the young does not have the red patch on the head like the adult.
