Michigan Species to Know - Downy Woodpecker (Piocides pubescens)

Here's the next Michigan species card that I promised - the Downy Woodpecker (Picoides pubescens).  This small woodpecker is a common sight around Michigan and visits bird feeders regularly. I have written several times about this species including a species profile from January 2016.


Tomorrow I will share one of the ways that I use cards such as this in the classroom.
