Have you ever seen one?

Yes, of course, I have seen Wood Pecker, and they live in big trees. When I visit our country house in the village, I can see many Wood Peckerroaming in big trees. The Wood Pecker lean on the trees and dig holes in the middle of the trees. Some of the big trees have made very big holes there, and some birds have even settled there.

What type of animal is it?

The is Wood Pecker generally known for its beak and is one of the most famous birds. It can use its beak to cut through tree trunks or entire trees and make holes in them. It has strong jaws and strong beaks, and its tongue is very long, which allows it to easily hunt for food in front of it.

What are its characteristics and what makes it unique?

Wood Pecker usually roam large trees in forests, woodlands and various rural areas and also live their lives by eating the fruits of various nut trees and dry wooden trunks. They complete their daily activities by pecking at the trunks of various trees, especially large ones that are among their prey.
