EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about a multitasking mama! This Syrian Woodpecker female is not only rocking the latest fashion trend in tree trunk clinging, but she's also keeping an eye on her cozy nesthole. Nesting season can be quite demanding for this hardworking bird, but she's got it all under control in Bulgaria. With her stunning plumage and determined grip, this adult woodpecker showcases the beauty and strength of nature's creations. As an Asian native making a home in southeastern Europe, she adds a touch of diversity to the Balkan region. Springtime brings new life to these European woodlands, and our feathered friend knows just how to make the most of it. With her sharp beak ready for action, she pecks away at tree trunks searching for insects or drumming out territorial signals that echo through the forest. Her nesthole serves as both a safe haven for raising chicks and a cozy retreat during downtime. It's like having your own little wooden apartment! So next time you're strolling through Bulgarian woods in May, keep an ear out for rhythmic tapping and look up high on tree trunks – you might just catch sight of this amazing Syrian Woodpecker momma doing what she does best: being fabulous!
