Video - The Woodpecker's Beat

Did you know that woodpeckers can peck up to 20 times per second? This rapid pecking helps them find insects hiding under the bark of trees. Woodpeckers have a special type of skull that acts like a helmet, protecting their brains from all the pecking. They also have a long sticky tongue that can reach deep into crevices to catch their prey. Woodpeckers can even drum on trees to communicate with other woodpeckers or to attract a mate. So next time you hear a woodpecker, remember they're not just making noise, they're hard at work! for more fun facts like and subscribe now
