Acorn Woodpecker

near Howard Prarie, Or.

It looked like a flock of woodpeckers...there were about 20 of them moving through the trees. We
really weren't sure if it was a flock, a group of fledglings or if someone told them we were coming
and they wanted they picture taken...whatever, I was just happy I got some clear shots! Acorn
Woodpecker facts: The Acorn Woodpecker stores nuts in individually drilled holes in trees called
granaries. The acorns are jammed in so tight that even squirrels can’t pry them out.
