Yes, recently I found out the same is true of one of the UK woodpeckers. The green woodpecker feeds mainly on ants on the ground and doesn't forage on tree trunks like the others.

Jeez that yellow woodpecker is beautiful.
Green woodpeckers don't drum either - only greater spot/lesser spot (and it's only in the spring for sexxy reasons, not, as one might think, to get food).

because I have a big tree in my garden every summer I get a lot of bees, particularly these ones (chocolate mining bees- pleasing taxonomy, but these fuckers have stung my feet many times). This year I have a nest of them somewhere deep under my garden and they are in big numbers at the side of my house every evening. The garden is raised up 9 ft with a brick wall at the side and they are coming and going in between their nest and my world through gaps in the concrete render and drainage holes in the brick wall.
