PLEASE NOTE!!! A great majority of this footage features Acorn Woodpeckers... which, it's important to note, drill grids of holes in trees to store acorns in. This is called their "larder" and they store acorns in these holes to eat later in the year.
(I know, old video, blame the algorythm) Sapsuckers also join the exceptions! They specialize in drilling lots of little holes in trees to drink the sap!
Thank you. I was annoyed that I didn’t hear why they were stashing acorns. 😅 The sap makes more sense to me, but I somehow have missed learning about both before. Probably too focused on the cute downy woodpeckers in my area. 😆
Great footage and very informative. Had no idea about their beaks and mating practices. That big woodpecker tears something up for real. Always fun to watch. Great video
And mine they have an obnoxious, very loud noisy motorcycle and car that they rev up all of the time. Each and every single night and crack of dawn morning.
Hi Watop, I'm living in Jordan and the chameleons here seems to dining a hole in the ground and doing a hibernation during winter, that seems to be unusual behavior for chameleons! but I couldn't find much information about it online! Could you make a video about it? Thanks 😁
I remember having a tree in my backyard, then we heard wood getting hit. After some time we went outside and saw holes all over our trees and we learned this was the doing of a woodpecker
Pretty true with most birds. Since they can fly they can afford to make noise, especially since they can escape in 3 dimensions or even just jump off the tree/branch they're on. The main threat a woodpecker has is predatory birds, mainly raptors, who usually have a hard time nailing an animal on the side of a tree where branches might get in the way, and the only way to get them would be to fly past and somehow grab them without smacking the tree trunk. They mainly get killed in their nests, on branches, or if they land on the ground.
Same, except it was metal siding. I've also seen them trying to peck James Hardy siding which is a mixture of concrete and fiberglass. No idea why since both are impervious to bugs so there was nothing for them to eat.
Such beautiful creatures. I got pretty sad when I found a dead one in front of my apartment building. It was beautiful but unfortunately had to scoop it and bury it in the garden.

M: Pheww thank god we aren't woodpeckers Me: Dies "Reancarnated as a woodpecker" Me: welp guess im gonna peck till i die either i get a mate or try dying
if that happens, just try to find yourself one or more megaphones and do what Bart did in that episode of the simpsons. i'm sure it'll help get you a mate if that happens
@@Snakey_snek the window is still in one piece, but I don't know if the woodpecker or woodpeckers ( 'cause it happened multiple times and I don't know if it was the same evry time) puked on my window. There was some orangish thingi dripping down my window, cleaning that was difficlt buddy.
I moved out into the foothills where in general there are more animals then living on town. The first time a woodpecker hit my awning I thought it was a shooting.
I used to work on the wooden electric poles and occasionally would come across a pole that had been so badly attacked by woodpeckers they looked like Swiss cheese.
Watop, i have to correct you on the part where you talked about the higest g force experienced by a human ever which was 46 g. But in recent times there was a higher g force experience by the dutch f1 racer max verstappen, who crashed in a race and had a g force of 50 put on him and survived completely fine ( you can look it up if you want to know and see the crash) just wanted to mention this but i really enjoyed the video once more keep it up
Just happened to see some kind of Woodpecker last week in the woods. It was knocking against a branch, it wasn't against the tree itself. Kind of weird, the branch was not even very thick.
Love these videos, what a great informative content with unique narrative energy! ❤ And that mystery music in the background is best touch (especially when there's cool scientific explanation about evolution).
I'd like to see the slow mo guys film that woodpecker hammering on a tree. Also, I love hearing that big pileated woodpecker on a frosty morning while setting in my bow stand during bow season..
We have a nested piolated woodpecker somewhere in our neighborhood ! We see many trees "shavings" on the ground. It looks like a flying chicken with a mohawk when they fly. They are awesome!
Do you know some rats die as soon as they get their "MILK" cuz they can't stop having seggs, I imagine this as just another addiction but they're having seggs with trees? And they don't usually die?
Imagine if a Wood Pecker actually chopped down a Tree in WWII where the Americans were having Balloon Tanks to troll the Enemies and the Enemies be like: HOW DID THAT TREE MAKE A SHERMAN FLY?!?! NATURE IS TAKING REVENGE!!!!
A car may not do damage to a turtle shell, but I can tell you from first hand experience a turtle shell is no match for a fully loaded 80,000 pound 18-wheeler. Long story, but it happened in a road construction section at 55mph with no way to avoid it. Pieces of shell went everywhere. No telling what people in the cars behind me saw.
I had a woodpecker living in the woods behind my house years ago, and that MF was loud as you know what. I despised that thing because it was SO LOUD at 5 EVERY MORNING… ALL that year. Thank God I moved, because woody woodpecker would’ve probably got it had I not LOL!
I wish pileated woodpeckers would quit building dams across the English channel. Having all the water fill up on one side makes it such a hassle to navigate.
Some years ago I sow woman wrapping bacon over tree in Central Park in NYC. I ask her why, she said : for woodpeckers, it was blizzard and snow till knees.
Enjoy the video friends!

very cool thanks dude !
THANK YOU! It was really frustrating to see so much footage of that behavior and not know why.
It's probably worth to add that they are living in a group...
A lot of holes in a tree = a group of these who are protecting their dinner.
Here's the answer lol, thank you.
Thank you, fellow birder! We don't have these in my area, only Downy, Hairy, and Red-bellied...and the occasional, elusive Red-headed.
"Woodpeckers eat insects." True. Except for those Acorn Woodpeckers you kept showing, which also eat . . . acorns.

@@animodev2099 true
Question is - Is big woodpecker, also the stud with big pecker ?
"Just imagine, not only are you constantly surrounded by repetitive noise, you're also the one generating it."
Sounds a lot like my neighbor.
Maybe your neighbor just got a new nickname
And mine they have an obnoxious, very loud noisy motorcycle and car that they rev up all of the time. Each and every single night and crack of dawn morning.
Woodpeckers are so metal, they should be the icon of Metal Rock
Never knew how big woodpeckers were until I thought somebody was knocking on my door and opened my door to see a dinosaur on my front porch
Not all woodpeckers are super big, I’m jealous of whatever kind you get.

You never mentioned the acorn-looking things the birds were messing with.
Yeah
They are acorns, that species eats them
I thought they wait till the acorns start to rot then they eat the bugs that are eating the acorns?
“ nature “ kills me with that word every time 😂
Its amazing how this guy just keeps coming up with these awesome video ideas
he is stealing concept and footage lol

Woodpeckers noise ? What's noise

Nature must be all knowing, all powerful to make the woodpecker beak like that. Always growing
so from 50G onwards, a crash can become lethal? Max Verstappen was really lucky with his 51G impact at Silverstone this year
Yeah sometimes you have to take his facts with a grain of salt…

No creation without a creator

I was exactly thinking the same! And Romain Grosjean experienced 67 G in 2020 at his crash in Bahrain.
I think car crashed at 52g, verstappen probably felt lesser extent
@Blue Wolf how dare you spoil all the fun with facts, and no humour. 🤣🤣
Kenny Bräck, former indy car driver, had a crash in which the g force detected was 214 ... and he survived o.o
I wish I could see your sub count so I could comment on how underrated this channel is.
