About These Birds
Beautiful Woodpecker
The Beautiful Woodpecker is an attractively patterned woodpecker endemic to the forests and woodland edges of northwestern Colombia. Males have bold black-and-white barring on the back, a red cap, and yellow wash on the underparts. It forages on tree trunks and branches for insects, larvae, and fruits.
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.
