All species use a strong, chisel-like bill to drum mating calls or territory delineations and to bore holes in trees for forage or nest cavities. Eggs are laid on the bare or chip-lined floor of the cavity, and both parents care for their young. The woodpecker diet consists predominantly of wood-associated insects found within tree canopies or caught aerially. Notable exceptions includes the Sapsuckers (Sphyrapicus sp.), which specialize on tree sap and the ants that it attracts, and the Acorn Woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus), which not surprisingly consumes acorns as a significant portion of its diet.
