“The ivory-billed woodpecker can drill into wood with its sharp beak. Woodpeckers make distinctive sounds as they chisel into trees. Experts can even distinguish between different species by the sounds they make by their burrowing. This species has tufts of white feathers around its nostrils to keep out debris while it’s drilling into wood.”
