🦉 The great spotted woodpecker (Dendrocopos major)
- Dendrocopos Greek: dendron tree, coptō to hit, beat
- major (lat.) big
These most numerous woodpeckers have to work hard in winter to get food for themselves. Insects and larvae are deeply hidden in trees and the woodpecker inspects them and if it finds an insect, it pecks the tree to get to the food.
And if he really wants to eat and there is no way to get insects, then cones with pine seeds will do. To do this, they first set up a “forge” so that it is convenient to insert the pine cone into the hole and remove the seeds from it.
