As part of a set of 40, this button features a Red Headed Woodpecker. Red Headed Woodpeckers are solitary birds found in southern parts of Canada and eastern parts of the United States. They are aggressive birds that are highly territorial and will destroy other bird’s eggs and nests to protect their territory. Red Headed Woodpeckers won’t hesitate to defend their nests or food storages from larger species of birds. They are one of the few species that store food under twigs, tree limbs or bark so other animals cannot take it.
