Woodpeckers: The Hole Story
There are over 240 species of woodpeckers. They live on every continent except Antarctica and Australia. Woodpeckers come in all shapes and sizes, each uniquely engineered for their particular lifestyles. Some are sap drinkers, others live exclusively in forests ravaged by fire. Others catch insects on the wing acting more like a swallow than a woodpecker. And still others drill deep into the bark of decaying trees using their spear like tongue to fish insects from deep in the cambium. WOODPECKERS: THE HOLE STORY pecks away at what makes woodpeckers so special. We will follow intimate stories of two very different families
raising their young, explore woodpeckers’ unique evolutionary journey and the powerful role they play in every ecosystem they inhabit.
