About These Birds

Bennett's Woodpecker

Bennett's Woodpecker is a medium-sized woodpecker of dry open woodland, bush, and savanna in eastern and southern Africa. Males have a red cap and malar stripe, while both sexes show heavily spotted and barred brown-and-white plumage. It forages on tree trunks and on the ground for ants and other insects.

Bermuda Flicker

The Bermuda Flicker was a woodpecker endemic to Bermuda that became extinct in the 17th century following human colonization and the introduction of rats and pigs to the islands. Its bones have been found in cave deposits alongside those of other extinct endemic Bermuda birds. It was likely similar to its mainland relatives, foraging on ants and insects.
