海外「キツツキさん、ちょっとやり過ぎじゃないですか？」

As the name suggests, woodpeckers are famous for “poking trees,” but there are no birds named “woodpeckers.” Woodpeckers are classified generic names, each with a name. Currently, there are 10 species in Japan: green, porcupine, black, arisui, giant red, red, black, red-spotted woodpecker and black-spotted woodpecker. The largest one is the black-and-red one (45cm long, crow-sized) with a strong color scheme, and the smallest one is the black one (15cm long, sparrow-sized). Kogera has been around Japan all year round, except for some remote islands such as the Ogasawara Islands and Aogashima. It used to be in the mountains, but in the 1970s, it started to increase in urban parks with many trees, and now it also burrows in street trees and garden trees. My favorite tree is a tree that has withered parts and is easy to peck at. Woodpecker’s companions dig holes in trees and eat caterpillars, but they also eat insects on the ground. Kogera looks like a sweet tooth, and in the spring, you can also see cute images of them sucking the nectar of cherry blossoms.
