Tap, tap, tap...

Tap, tap, tap...

Sometimes easier to hear than see, hairy woodpeckers (Picoides villosus) live year-round in Mount Rainier's forests. This male hairy woodpecker (note the red patch on the back of the head) was observed hunting for insects on a dead tree in the Carbon River area of the park.

NPS Video. Description: A black and white woodpecker with a red patch on the back of its head, pecks its beak against the trunk of a dead tree, flicking off pieces of bark and lichen. ~kl

Twelve miles of the lower Blackfoot River flow through public lands just a short drive from Missoula, Montana. The scenic waters and surrounding hills and forests are a wonderful playground for boaters, anglers, hikers, and wildlife watchers. The fall colors always show up to impress and it’s a great @mypubliclands spot for some easy outdoor fun. 🍂 Photo by Bob Wick, BLM.

PHOTOGRAPH BY BRIAN SKERRY Spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) in the waters off Kona, Hawaii. These dolphins forage at night in the deep water offshore, then come into shallow bays in the early morning to socialize and rest. This species of dolphin is known for its spinning behavior, where the dolphins leap out of the water, spinning and turning. Although researchers are not certain why they do this, a leading theory is to dislodge remoras and for communication. Spinner dolphins are especially social and are almost never found alone. They typically travel in large pods. Read the entire article.
