Woodpeckers
21 Subjects, 400 Images
With the exceptions of Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica and Madagascar, woodpeckers are found all over the world. These birds have strong bills for excavation and drumming on trees and long sticky tongues, that curl around their skulls in special cavities, for extracting food. Many cavity nesting species benefit from the work that woodpeckers perform.
