Observation: "a real live woodpecker" was the first thing I thought. This small, tiny bird actually pecks wood? The beak seems quite pointy and I imagine it must be hard and because it's pointy it allows it to continuously peck at wood without being hurt. Sometimes you can hit wood with a hammer and it won't break but wood can peck at it without pain. Interesting.
