Gila Woodpecker (Melanerpes uropygialis)


Captured from a WONDERFUL MULTIMEDIA CD-ROM title,
"Eyewitness Encyclopedia of Nature",
Dorling Kindersley Multimedia, 1995

CAPTION:
" THIS BIRD is one of the more than a dozen species of woodpecker found in the western United States. Unlike most of its relatives, it lives in very dry places, and it digs nest holes in giant cacti instead of in trees. Many other birds, such owls, use holes that the Gila woodpecker has abandoned."
