Woodpecker and Weasel

No not some new local public house, but a picture that is doing the rounds on the internet and in the UK newspapers. Is it real (some have doubted) but it is one of a sequence of shoots taken by Photographer Martin Le May of a weasel attacking a Green Woodpecker which then takes to the air with the weasel still clinging to its back.
