Ohio WoodpeckersWhen cold wintery winds pick up and snow starts to fall, most birds start flying south to warmer weather. One type of bird that will tough it out here in Ohio is a few species of Woodpeckers. The Downy Woodpecker, the Red-headed Woodpecker, the Red-Bellied Woodpecker and the Pileated Woodpecker all remain here. Ohio's smallest woodpecker is the Downy and it's the one you will most likely see visit your backyard feeder. The Red-headed woodpecker has a solid black back and white rump, and like his name...has a solid red head. (continued below slideshow)
The Red-bellied has a zebra-striped back with a red cap on his head and a white rump. The Pileated is HUGE and just as shy. It is learning to overcome that timidness and is starting to visit suet and peanut feeders. Because of his size you need to make sure that your holders are large enough to accommodate him. This woodpecker looks like the cartoon character "Woody Woodpecker". During the summer months, woodpeckers diet on insects and other tiny pests such as ants, moths, borers, scale insects, grasshoppers, grubs, beetles, crickets, wasps, aphids, caterpillars, spiders and many more. Although they mainly feed on insects, they also enjoy fruits and nuts. Planting berry-producing bushes or trees will draw them to your yard ~dogwoods, apples, serviceberry, cherry, flowering crabapples, spicebush, currents and hollies including winterberry bushes. Suet is a perfect supplement to their diet as it provides animal protein and fats. It can be smeared in tree bark or cakes/blocks can be hung in cages or set in platform feeders. Woodpeckers enjoy peanuts as much as we do. Put peanuts in peanut feeders so the birds have to peck at the nuts and get only small pieces as whole peanuts are harmful to the birds. Peanuts will also draw titmice, nuthatches and Carolina wrens to your yard. |
