About These Birds
Dunenspecht
Der Dunenspecht ist der kleinste und am weitesten verbreitete Specht Nordamerikas. Seine geringe Größe erlaubt ihm die Nahrungssuche an dünnen Zweigen und Pflanzenstängeln, die größeren Spechten unzugänglich sind. Im Winter schließt sich der Dunenspecht häufig gemischten Vogelschwärmen an und profitiert von der erhöhten Wachsamkeit mehrerer Arten gegenüber Fressfeinden.
Arizona Woodpecker
The Arizona Woodpecker is found in oak and pine-oak forests of the southwestern United States and Mexico. It is a medium-sized woodpecker weighing around 54g with a wingspan of about 22.6cm, notable for its brown-and-white spotted plumage. It forages on tree bark for insects and larvae.
