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.

Arrowhead Piculet

The Arrowhead Piculet is one of the smallest woodpeckers in the world, weighing just 13g with a wingspan of under 11cm. Found in South American forests and woodland edges, it forages on thin branches and twigs for insects. Its tiny size and arrowhead-shaped streaks on the underparts are distinctive.
