Yellow-bellied Sapsucker — size comparison — facts and sources
The yellow-bellied sapsucker inhabits North American forests and migrates seasonally. It drills rows of small bark holes and revisits them for sap, also catching attracted insects.
Different trees yield sap under different conditions, so several feeding sites are maintained. Fruit is also eaten; other birds and insects use its holes.
