The Pikachu Bird, The Cream-colored Woodpecker Has Amazing Feathers

This beautiful creamy-yellow woodpecker is native to South America and resident in its range. The nominate race presents very variable coloration in plumage, with wide degree of individual variation.



Cream-coloured Woodpecker utters typical loud, sharp "whaa-jer". This call may be repeated several times in rapid series, and by several birds. We can also hear a loud clear "pueer, pueer, purr, paw" with descending last two notes. Its usual call is a distinctive high-pitched laugh. Its drumming is relatively strong and helps to localize the bird.
