Summary: If you want to learn more about woodpeckers get this book!
Review: I hesitated getting this book because I couldn't find much written about it, but I wanted to find out more about the several species of woodpeckers that visit our backyard and the woods around us. I hit the jackpot with this book and recommend it highly for anyone who wants to learn more than the basics covered in bird guides. All the North American woodpeckers are covered and many more as well. The illustrations by Dana Gardner are breathtaking. You will find out how different species store their food ,their dwellings and territories, daily life, how they communicate, pair formation, social life, and much more. This book is an enjoyable read and not at all like reading a textbook. If you want to learn more about woodpeckers get this book!
