Song & Call Comparison

A sharp 'pik' or 'peek' contact call. Drums on resonant branches with a rapid, light tattoo — softer than larger woodpeckers. Also gives a high descending whinny 'keeer-keeer'.

Eurasian Wren

노래

Extraordinarily loud for its tiny size: a rapid, powerful stream of trills, buzzes, and churring phrases. One of Europe's loudest songs by volume relative to body weight.

About These Birds

Downy Woodpecker

솜털딱따구리는 북아메리카에서 가장 작고 가장 널리 분포하는 딱따구리이다. 소형 체구 덕분에 더 큰 딱따구리가 접근할 수 없는 가는 나뭇가지와 잡초 줄기에서 먹이를 찾을 수 있다. 솜털딱따구리는 겨울에 혼종 무리에 합류하여 여러 종이 함께 포식자를 감시하는 이점을 얻는다.

Eurasian Wren

굴뚝새는 유럽에서 가장 작은 새 중 하나이지만 놀랍도록 큰 소리로 노래한다. 몸무게 10g 미만이지만 노래 소리는 500m 이상 퍼진다. 추운 날에는 집단으로 모여 체온을 유지한다.
