Beautiful, fascinating little dinosaurs. Except for one... the red-bellied sonofabitch (official name) who discovered the aluminum flashing around the top of the chimney, which happened to be 10 feet from my upstairs bedroom window. Imagine the sound of a machine gun going off near your head at 6 am.

[@lindabrown8795]

Not dinosaurs dearie. Sapsucker is the name you're groping for, although flickers drive me nuts drumming on the steel pipes at 5:30 AM.

I kinda love those little assholes though. The red-bellied sonofabitches in my yard always harass the blue jays, who often bully the smaller songbirds. Very nice dinosaurs.

[@stvbrsn]

The Queen of Neckbeards it’s funny you should say that. Of course, I love all birds (even the sonofabitch hammering out his territory from my chimney!) But I used to have a problem with blue jays, thinking that they were just bullies (as you pointed out). But over the years I’ve come to appreciate the Jays for their resourcefulness and intelligence. As well as for the variety of calls they make. I used to only know their loud, raucous “bullying” caw. But I’ve since discovered a soft, quiet whistley type call (almost like a faint creaky door hinge) which has become one of my favorite sounds in all of nature!

[@TheQueenofNeckbeards]

@@stvbrsn I totally admire their intelligence too. I guess being smart also gives them a big personality, and whenever they're not screaming they are really cool birds. A lot like parrots lol

I heard and saw an ivory-billed woodpecker in the summer of 2018.

I saw northern flicker☝️

One morning I heard a drilling sound and I thought my neighbor started construction in their basement but I didn't see any sign of work as I looked out and I wondered. Finally I found it was an woodpecker that started a construction in the wall of MY house! Sometimes I hear that drilling sound and I hit the wall of my room very hard to scare that away. That has just happened this morning again. I'll go out and check how much the woodpecker's construction work has been done to my house. Gee!

[@lindabrown8795]

I do a lot of pounding on walls in the early AM too. It does seem to work.

[@kurtreber9813]

Is it actually "constructing"? Or just communicating?

[@micahbirdlover8152]

@@kurtreber9813 the peacking is to mark their territory ☝️

Wonderful channel - Thanks from Denmark 🙏

[@davidazinger5639]

great video.

[@DaButcher2005]

Thank you sir for this informative video my son and I enjoyed your video.

[@Tigerpuffer]

The Cuban form of the ivory billed woodpecker may have persisted into the 1990's, a sad reminder of what can be lost when humankind allows national pride and arbitrary borders to divide us from the things we all share in common.

[@plantydays3952]

very interesting, thank you! :-)

[@dovergerald1579]

[@badblood2016]

Which one of these families of woodpeckers does Woody Woodpecker belong to?

[@WiseSnake]

A hybrid between an acorn woodpecker and pileated woodpecker.

[@NealMouse9140]

Pileated Woodpecker

[@henzcarltupastupas6751]

Woodpeckers are found in thick cypress forest of North America and Canada

[@tehutimes1]

Canada is part of North America.

[@micahbirdlover8152]

this is interesting 🤔

[@mistaman4638]

Vary cool..

[@humansavages832]

Rest in peace ivory woodpecker 😢😢😭😭

[@lindabrown8795]

I remember hearing about sightings much more recent than the 1940s--more like the 1980s--deep in swampland forest in southern states. Not gone yet, just repopulating I hope.

[@tehutimes1]

Some reports have some living in swamps of Arkansas in the 2010's & in swampland in Florida also.

[@henzcarltupastupas6751]

@@tehutimes1 these beautiful bird is the victim of human activity, but as today, these birds are now protected by law

[@tonigirl4u1]

second year that a woodpecker pecked my house WHY..I live in the east side of MO...mid west USA

[@lindabrown8795]

I always heard it was from getting bugs out of the siding...State extension service recommends that you hang a mirror in the spot where it's trying to nest. Bird-brain thinks its a rival bird and flies away.

[@cigdemyorgancioglu2764]

nice
