The Secret Lives of North American Woodpeckers
Woodpeckers are the beating heart of North American forests. Their rhythmic drumming echoes through the trees, while their excavations create homes for owls and countless other species. Acting as keystone species, they are vital to the health and balance of wooded habitats across the continent.
In this new presentation, Paul Bannick takes us deep into the lives of these remarkable birds—from Alaska’s boreal forests and the oak woodlands of the Midwest to the desert borderlands of the Southwest and the tropical forests of Mexico and Florida.
Through first-hand field experiences, over 200 never-before-published photographs, and the latest science, Paul shares an intimate look at woodpeckers in every season—courtship, nesting, fledging, and surviving the winter months. He also explores the habitats that sustain these species and what we can do to protect them.
