Woodpeckers are birds that peck on trees with their strong beaks. They tap on wood to find bugs hiding inside. The pecking sounds like a tiny drum! Woodpeckers have special thick skulls that keep their heads safe while they peck.
Woodpeckers have long sticky tongues that they poke into holes to grab bugs. They also peck holes in trees to make their nests. Many woodpeckers have red feathers on their heads. You can hear them pecking in forests and parks.
