About These Birds
Downy Woodpecker
The downy woodpecker is the smallest and most widespread woodpecker in North America. Its small size allows it to forage on thin branches and weed stems that larger woodpeckers cannot access. Downies often join mixed-species flocks in winter, benefiting from the extra vigilance of multiple species watching for predators.
Eurasian Wryneck
ヨーロッパ・アジアで繁殖しアフリカで越冬するキツツキの仲間（体長16〜18cm）。褐色の樹皮模様のような迷彩羽とS字にねじれる首が特徴。Jynx torquilla（アリスイ）は捕まえられると首を奇妙な動きでねじる防御行動をすることから名付けられた。アリを舌でなめ捕る特殊な採食方法を持つ。Picidae科。
