Sitta europaea
In Flanders called boomklever because is an excellent tree climber. Little birdie with red orange underparts and grey blue on top. Black line crossing the eye and ear, and white chin. I find the butt feathers also very pretty in white and ed blotches (see fourth pic).
Arenberg campus, Heverlee.

Yes, they vary from area to area a bit. These are really red orange underneath :-)
