This is an impressive, large woodpecker (33 cm long), called Lineated woodpecker. It is recognizable by its bright red tuft, cross-banded underside, and the white, characteristic line that runs from the nape to the upper base of the bill and also extends down the throat. This is a male - it has red on the cheek, which the female lacks. This woodpecker is often seen in pairs, foraging on tree trunks for insects. It also eats fruit and seeds. Two to four eggs are laid in the nest hole.
