About These Birds

Abyssinian Woodpecker

The Abyssinian Woodpecker weighs about 25g and is endemic to Ethiopian and Eritrean highland forests. It excavates nest cavities and probes bark for wood-boring insects.

Black-bodied Woodpecker

The Black-bodied Woodpecker is a large, Near Threatened woodpecker of humid forests in eastern Brazil, Paraguay, and northeastern Argentina, with males showing mostly black plumage and a vivid red crest. It inhabits Atlantic Forest interior and forest fragments, excavating nest cavities in large trees. Ongoing deforestation and fragmentation of the Atlantic Forest threaten this species, which depends on large tracts of mature forest.
