- Synopsis
- Imagine spending the day hanging from a tree, pounding your lips into the hard, rough bark. That's the life of a pileated woodpecker, whose specialized toes, tail, beak, and tongue make it well suited for life on the side of a tree. Once near extinction, the pileated woodpecker has learned to live closer to humans and is increasing in number. With its loud cackling, large size, and bright coloring, the pileated woodpecker stands out among North American woodland creatures. REMARKABLE ANIMALS books spotlight a variety of unusual animals. Each book focuses on one animal, describing its appearance, habitat, life cycle, and relationship with humans. Through vivid color photographs and an absorbing text, young readers will discover the behavior and features that make some animals truly remarkable.
