Why it matters
The Red-naped Sapsucker is a fascinating member of the woodpecker family, recognized by the distinctive patch of red feathers on its nape and its habit of drilling precise rows of holes in trees to feed on sap. Its unique physical adaptations, including rounded wings and a pointed, stiffened tail, allow it to maneuver effectively while clinging to vertical trunks in the forests of the American West.
