Hairy woodpeckers are 7-10 inches in length (including tail). The Hairy Woodpecker is attracted to the heavy blows a Pileated Woodpecker makes when it is excavating a tree. The hairy forages in close association with the larger woodpecker, pecking in the deep excavations and taking insects that the pileated missed. source: http://www/birds/cornell.edu Obtained Feb. 23, 2007 Nov. 18, 2006, the female Hairy walking up a tree. |
