The woodpecker, also called peto[1], woodpecker, ipecu, mackerel and beetles, is a small to medium-sized bird of the order piciformes, of the family Picidae, with colorful feathers and, in most males, with a red crest. Its paws have two toes facing forward and two toes facing backwards, which help it to grip tree trunks. They are very numerous in Brazil.
Why woodpecker?
"Woodpecker", "Woodpecker" and "Pinica-pau" are references to their habit of piercing the wood of trees with their beak to capture larvae and insects and to build nests. They are capable of giving 100 pecks per minute on the trunk. of a tree.
Nests are dug into tree trunks as high as possible to protect against predators. The eggs of woodpeckers, from 4 to 5, are hatched by the female and also by the male for 20 days.
