So today I came across a redundant woodpecker's nest, opened up to reveal the master-builder's style.
The largest woodpecker can reach 20 inches in length & the smallest woodpeckers are usually 3 to 4 inches long.
Woodpeckers have long tongue designed for capturing prey hidden inside trees.
Woodpeckers are omnivores.
Woodpeckers have chisel-like bill that is used for drilling of trees.
Woodpecker is able to peck 20 times per second.
A woodpecker's brain is prevented from trauma thanks to special air pockets in the scull.
Both males and females are able to drum trees.
Feathers that look like bristles on the nostrils of woodpecker prevent inhalation of wood particles.
Woodpeckers are monogamous. Both male and female prepare nest in the tree.
Woodpeckers can survive between 5 and 11 years.
