What is Dellpecker?

Downy Woodpecker or Picoides Pubescens is a small bird native in North America. Downy dings are extremely common and can be found on distant northern reach if the habitats are available to support them. These birds are a well -known view of the many North American inhabitants and their populations are stable and healthy and lead scientists to classify them as "least concerns" in terms of protection. These birds have black and white feathers that can be black and cream or tanned in some regions. Their underside are white to creamy and have distinctive fogged black and white wings and tail feathers. Black and white stripes are seen on the head, with a small white spot on the back of the head in men. The Downy dating is often remained in the same area throughout the time, although birds in areas that cool down during the winter can move south with the migration population of birds to avoid bad weather. Nesting in rotten wood that they set out to form a cavity, surround space with bark and foxejník to mix. Birds eat insects, seeds and berries that they find by breaking the rotten bark with their beaks. This particular species with a gift is often described as "acrobatic" and birds are really very active, especially in the search for food.

In nature, birds make a number of calls to communicate with other birds.

While people often think that drumming is associated with feeding and nests, birds are in fact very quiet when they hunt food and estabilization nests. It is that the Downy date produces drumming on wood is used to signal the woodpeckers in the area.

These birds are frequent visitors in birdfeeders and especially like suet, treatment some birds omit to attract neighborsKé birds. The presence of the date in the area is highly beneficial because these birds help keep insect populations down and, like other birds, distribute seeds from berries, grass and other plants through their stools.
