About These Birds
Bearded Woodpecker
The Bearded Woodpecker is a large, boldly marked woodpecker of savanna woodlands and dry forests in eastern and southern Africa. It has black-and-white facial striping, a red crown in males, and a long, powerful bill adapted for excavating dead trees. It feeds on wood-boring beetle larvae, ants, and other insects found in bark and dead wood.
Acorn Woodpecker
The Acorn Woodpecker is a highly social woodpecker weighing about 79g of western North American oak woodland. It stores thousands of acorns in specially drilled 'granary trees' shared by the group.
