Red-bellied woodpecker — size comparison — facts and sources
The red-bellied woodpecker occurs in deciduous forests, parks and gardens. It searches bark and branches for insects and spiders, also eating acorns, nuts and fruit.
A pair may return to the same tree but usually excavates a new cavity. The male starts work; after accepting the site, the female helps finish the nesting chamber.
