Woodpeckers Have Important News
Downy Woodpecker, Male
Have you heard the noise? Sensed the excitement? Felt the commotion?
That’s because woodpeckers have important news.
Author and bird expert Stephen Shunk just published a book about woodpeckers.
It’s the Peterson Reference Guide to Woodpeckers of North America.
This beautiful book contains 320 pages of information and photos.
So, certainly, woodpeckers are excited about this new book.
I’m excited, too.
That’s because Stephen Shunk included two of my photos in his book. They’re on pages 128 and 142.

If you buy this book, you will:
1) Impress your friends.
When people see a book in your home, they’ll conclude that you know how to read. Impress people even more by placing a pen beside the book.
2) Earn gratitude.
Books make memorable gifts that people keep. Then those who receive a book from you will be able to impress their friends.
3) Relax.
Reading a book provides comfort. Many people read before going to bed because this helps them sleep better.

Help Birds Tip
Preserve old trees.
Woodpeckers need old trees for nest cavities. They prefer dead trees because the wood is softer.
Here’s a wonderful organization that’s working to preserve old trees. See: The Cavity Conservation Initiative

Posted at 15:51h, 12 MayExcellent!!!! May I post this on the Bluebird Recovery page please?
Have to get one of these. I have a pair of Downy’s in my garden. It’s always a thrill to see them on the suet and bark butter.
Thank you!
