April 4, 2007: Woodpecker nuts

xoxoxoBruce sends this along via Weather Underground. He says, "Photographer claims the Woodpeckers drill the holes and the Squirrels fill them with nuts and seeds." Sounds quite plausible. |
this just begs the question: Do Birds Have Balls?

It must suck to be a tree, sometimes.

Oh, man...remember I was talking about my 'fear' of holey textures? That image almost makes me ill. I'm weird!

This is the acorn woodpecker. I saw a nature special on it a few years ago and that picture reminded me of it. Here is another image:
http://www.birding.com/images/572.jpg The woodpecked DOES indeed drill the hole but they are also the ones who fill the holes. Not sure what this photographer saw but squirrels are known to raid these caches, not supply them. Of course, wikipedia has the goods: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acorn_woodpecker --Justin |

Thank you.
You mostly lost me after Oh My, so that helped. Kinda. Will just take a while for my old brain to work through it. |
