Three Hokkaido Woodpeckers

10,000 Birds

JUNE 17, 2024

One study on Hokkaido found that 47 out of 110 old woodpecker holes were used by renters, which in the biological world are called secondary cavity users. And as in the human world, the suitability of these holes decreases with time (presumably some of the really old ones do not even have wifi yet).

In fact, John MacKinnon (of “Guide to the Birds of China”) in a recent Shanghai presentation called it “not a real woodpecker at all”, and while he is wrong about that, I sort of see his point. Makes them sort of the renters of the woodpecker world rather than homeowners.
