About These Birds

Bennett's Woodpecker

Bennett's Woodpecker is a medium-sized woodpecker of dry open woodland, bush, and savanna in eastern and southern Africa. Males have a red cap and malar stripe, while both sexes show heavily spotted and barred brown-and-white plumage. It forages on tree trunks and on the ground for ants and other insects.

Antillean Piculet

The Antillean Piculet is a small woodpecker endemic to Hispaniola, weighing about 31 grams with a wingspan near 15 cm. As the only piculet in the Caribbean, it occupies a unique ecological niche, pecking at bark and wood for insects in forested areas. Its small size distinguishes it from larger Caribbean woodpeckers.
