Just want to say it's so great to see you here! I should have already searched for you, but I'm a contented follower now. Thanks for all your great #bird photos!
Flash on a summer day in North Miami hearing a large headed pecker working on a palm tree. So happy to have found soft wood. Supposedly their brain pan has developed extra padding to avoid injury from all that sledgehammer impact.

I tend to think that ages ago they weren't red. Just covered in blood from pecking trees. Females picked mates based on redness. Then evolution got involved. Just a silly thought so don't quote it in any journals.
