About These Birds
Arabian Woodpecker
The Arabian Woodpecker is a near-threatened woodpecker from montane forests of the Arabian Peninsula, weighing about 27 grams with a wingspan near 22 cm. It is the only woodpecker native to the Arabian Peninsula, excavating nest cavities and foraging for insects in the bark of trees in highland woodlands. Habitat loss in its restricted montane forest range poses ongoing threats.
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.
