EDITORS COMMENTS
Who needs a bird feeder when you have your own sap buffet? This Rufous-bellied Woodpecker knows how to dine in style, perched on a pine tree trunk in the breathtaking Meilixueshan mountains of Yunnan, China. With her vibrant plumage and determined beak, she's ready to feast on the sweet nectar oozing from the sap wells. This adult female woodpecker is no ordinary diner; she's an expert at extracting every last drop of goodness from these natural tree taps. As she delicately pecks away at the bark, her nimble tongue laps up the sugary treat like a connoisseur savoring fine wine. The picturesque backdrop of Meilixueshan adds an extra touch of magic to this scene. Towering mountains covered in lush greenery create a serene atmosphere for our feathered friend's mealtime delight. It's as if nature itself has set the stage for this delightful display of avian elegance. In this snapshot captured by FLPA photographer John Holmes, we witness not only the beauty of wildlife but also its resourcefulness and adaptability. So next time you spot a woodpecker tapping away at a tree trunk, remember that they're not just making noise – they're enjoying their very own five-star dining experience!
