Woodpeckers are usually green and black and white.

The most common woodpeckers are green woodpeckers and spotted woodpeckers. The male bird's head is red and very bright. The spotted woodpecker is slightly smaller, with black background and white spots on the upper body, mostly on the wings, brown and white on the lower body, red on the lower tail and red on the back of the male's head.

Woodpecker is a famous forest beneficial bird. Its chisel marks can not only kill pests such as longicorn larvae under the bark, but also be used as an indicator of healthy forest logging, so it is called forest doctor. In addition to the real woodpecker, there are cartoon characters about woodpecker and the movie Woodpecker of the same name in the animation.

Woodpeckers are common resident birds, and there are green woodpeckers and spotted woodpeckers widely distributed in China.

They feed on some pests, such as longicorn beetles, brown beetles, winged moths, smelly bedbugs, etc., and can eat about 1500 every day. Because woodpeckers eat a lot and have a wide range of activities, in the forest of 13.3 hectares, if a pair of woodpeckers inhabit, more than 90% of insects can be pecked away in a winter.
